Meanwhile, the UN says another world war was possible if leaders failed to exercise restraint.
The world body, in a terse statement, on Friday said: “Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, has consistently advocated for de-escalation in the Gulf.
He is deeply concerned with the recent escalation.
“This is a moment in which leaders must exercise maximum restraint. The world cannot afford another war in the Gulf.”
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, in his explanation, said President Trump ordered the take out of Soleimani to protect Americans.
Pompeo stated that the action was to disrupt an “imminent attack” that could have cost American lives in the Middle East region.
