London: UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer Thursday condemned "in the strongest terms" Iranian strikes on Qatar's main gas hub, the world's largest liquefied natural gas facility.
"We are working towards a swift resolution to the situation in the Middle East, in the best interests of the British people," Starmer added in a post on X.
He discussed the "egregious" strikes with NATO chief Mark Rutte and French President Emmanuel Macron in a call Thursday, Starmer's office said in statement.
"Attacks on critical infrastructure risked pushing the region further into crisis, the leaders agreed", said Downing Street's readout of the call.
"Turning to the Strait of Hormuz, the leaders reiterated the importance of securing the key maritime route and supporting freedom of navigation for shipping.
