Russia has warned the US against military involvement in the escalating Iran-Israel conflict, calling it “extremely dangerous” with “unpredictable consequences.” Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova criticized Israeli airstrikes on Iran’s Bushehr nuclear plant, calling them a step away from catastrophe. The site, built by Russia, may have been mistakenly confirmed as hit by Israel. US President Donald Trump said he might join Israeli strikes, while Moscow urged diplomatic solutions. Russia also highlighted the environmental risks, citing Fukushima. President Putin has offered to mediate, but Trump dismissed it: “Mediate Russia first.” Russia and UAE jointly called for an immediate ceasefire and political dialogue. (PC: NDTV)
