UK condemns Iran's use of ballistic missiles: FCDO statement
The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office has condemned Iran’s use of ballistic missiles in a test launch conducted today.
An FCDO spokesperson said:
We condemn Iran’s use of ballistic missiles in a test launch confirmed to have been conducted today. The launch is a clear breach of UN Security Council Resolution 2231, which requires that Iran not undertake any activity related to ballistic missiles designed to be capable of delivering nuclear weapons – including launches using ballistic missile technology.
These actions are a threat to regional and international security and we call on Iran to immediately cease its activities.
