France joins other countries condemning Iranian drone attacks on Israel

Countries around the world condemned Iran's strikes on Israel late Saturday, warning the attack threatened to further destabilise the Middle East. In the night of 13 and 14 April, Iran sent waves of drones and missiles to Israel, but most of them were shot down by Israeli defence systems.
The Israeli army said on Sunday that Iran's attack on Israel using hundreds of drones and missiles had been "foiled," with 99 percent of them intercepted.
"The Iranian attack was foiled," Israeli military spokesman Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari said in a televised statement.

Here are some of the main reactions so far:
France
France's Foreign Minister Stéphane Séjourné on X said that "in deciding to take this unprecedented action, Iran has reached a new level in its acts of destabilisation and is risking a military escalation".
US
President Joe Biden promised "ironclad" support for Israel after holding an urgent meeting with top security officials.
"I just met with my national security team for an update on Iran's attacks against Israel. Our commitment to Israel's security against threats from Iran and its proxies is ironclad," Biden said on X, posting a picture of the meeting in the White House Situation Room.
Britain
UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak in a statement condemned the "reckless" strikes, which he said "risk inflaming tensions and destabilising the region. Iran has once again demonstrated that it is intent on sowing chaos in its own backyard."
