Phl nations to take 'path of diplomacy'
The Freeman
|June 24, 2025
The Philippines urged countries involved in the Israel-Iran war to prevent a further escalation of the conflict after the United States announced on Saturday it had joined Israel's military campaign against Iran.
-
In a statement on Sunday evening, the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) expressed concern over the developments in the Middle East, where Israel and Iran have been trading tit-for-tat missile strikes for over a week with no signs of de-escalation.
“We strongly urge concerned parties to take the path of diplomacy and avoid further escalation of this conflict that could threaten regional and international peace and security,” the DFA said.
“The Philippines continues to reiterate the need for a peaceful and diplomatic solution to this crisis,” it added.
US President Donald Trump said Saturday that the US military has carried out a “very successful attack” on three Iranian nuclear sites. Iran, on the same day, threatened to retaliate by targeting US bases.
