BAKU, Azerbaijan, March 1. UN Secretary-General
Antonio Guterres called the current situation a "grave threat to
international peace and security", Trend reports.
He warned that military action carries the risk of triggering
uncontrollable events in one of the world’s most volatile regions.

said he could not confirm reports of Ali Khamenei’s death, noting
that "there are many unconfirmed reports."
The UN chief highlighted that the attacks have caused
significant civilian casualties. According to Iranian media, an
airstrike killed at least 85 people and injured many more at a
girls’ school in Minab, Hormuzgan Province, and a school in Tehran

subsequent strikes on Israel, according to Israeli sources.
