Waheed Ahmed (Former Ambassador): It was not easy for Iran to tolerate Israeli attack on its diplomats in a third country. That is why they gave a full scale response in order to deter Israel from committing such acts in future again. However, Iran does not want the conflict to escalate and that is why it said its mission is concluded. The response of Western countries was understandable as they are fully backing Israel in its transgressions. Pakistan has given a sagacious response by urging all sides to restrain.
