No military objective justifies destruction of a society’s infrastructure, UN chief says

United Nations secretary general Antonio Guterres is “deeply troubled” by the statement suggesting that an entire people or civilisation may bear “the consequences of political and military decisions”, UN spokesman Stephane Dujarric said. Guterres's comment comes after Trump’s warning to Iran earlier on Tuesday that a “whole civilization will die tonight” if the Strait of Hormuz isn’t opened.
