JAKARTA - Commission I of the House of Representatives asked the Indonesian Ministry of Foreign Affairs to proactively respond to Israel's retaliatory attacks on Iran marked by three explosions in Isfahan City this morning. Meanwhile, this happened after Iran attacked Israel with more than 300 drones or not on Saturday, April 14. "I ask the Indonesian government to be actively involved in diplomacy in the descalation of conflicts in the Middle East because it leads to World War III which will harm all mankind," said DPR Commission I Chairman Meutya Hafid to reporters, Friday, April 19. Meutya encouraged the Indonesian government through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to intervene so that the UN could issue a resolution so that attacks from all parties were immediately stopped. Including the attack on Gaza by Israel. "I would like to remind that the UN Security Council is very responsible for involving all parties to prevent further escalation," he said. According to the Golkar politician, so far the UN DK has failed to carry out a mandate to stop the Israel-Hamas War in Gaza and the Russia-Ukraine War. UNSC, said Meutya, needs to work harder to reduce the new turmoil that will arise. "I also ask the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to mitigate the safety of Indonesian citizens in all areas that are in conflict and beyond. In Palestine, Iran and others," explained Meutya. Earlier a US official told ABC News, CBS News, and CNN that Israel had launched a counter-attack on Iran. According to a report by The Guardian citing US officials, Israel has warned Joe Biden's administration on Thursday, April 18, that attacks will arrive in the next 24-48 hours.

Iranian state media only confirmed that air defenses opened fire on drones in Isfahan province, and knocked them down. There are also Iranian reports of air defenses that have been active around Tabriz. It was also reported that there was no significant damage caused by the attack.
