China strongly condemns US attack on Iran

China strongly condemns the US attack on Iran and on nuclear facilities supervised by the International Atomic Energy Agency, the Chinese foreign ministry said on Sunday.

The move seriously violates the United Nations Charter and worsens tensions in the Middle East, the ministry said in a statement on its website.

China urges parties to the conflict especially Israel to cease attacks as soon as possible and begin dialogue and negotiations, the ministry said.
