The Iraqi government warned on Saturday of ''dangerous consequences'' stemming from the ''silence of the international community'' in response to Israel’s ''brutal behavior,'' following a series of overnight strikes on military positions in neighboring Iran.

''Iraq has previously warned of the dangerous consequences resulting from the international community’s silence on Israel’s brutal behavior toward Palestinians, its attacks on Lebanon and Syria, and now its new aggression against Iran,'' said government spokesperson Basim Alawadi. He accused Israel of ''expanding the conflict in the region'' through ''attacks carried out with impunity.''
