China and Russia have strongly condemned the United States' recent airstrikes in Iraq and Syria, accusing the US of violating the sovereignty of the two countries and escalating tensions in the Middle East. During a United Nations Security Council meeting, both countries' representatives criticized the US actions. The Russian delegate to the Security Council highlighted that the American strikes, amounting to 85, caused civilian casualties and were part of a destructive policy in the region. They also suggested that the United States, under President Joe Biden, was attempting to improve its image ahead of presidential elections. The Chinese representative echoed these sentiments, urging the international community to condemn the US military actions. The Russian Permanent Representative to the UN, Vasiliy Nebenzya, stated that the strikes aimed to further inflame conflicts. The Security Council meeting, which included comments from UN Deputy Secretary-General for Political Affairs Rosemary DiCarlo calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, also addressed the American and British attacks on Yemen, which Russia described as a threat to international peace and security. The Iranian delegate also condemned the US strikes.
