United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres called on all sides “not to escalate” the volatile situation in the Red Sea, his spokesman said on Friday after Washington and London launched strikes on Yemen’s Huthi rebels.

“The Secretary General further calls on all parties involved not to escalate even more the situation in the interest of peace and stability in the Red Sea and the wider region,” said Guterres’ spokesman Stephane Dujarric.
