"Israel's targeting of facilities linked to Iran's South Pars gas field is a dangerous and irresponsible step amid the current military escalation in the region," the spokesperson added.
Earlier in the day, Iran's state television reported that the US and Israeli airstrikes have hit its South Pars natural gas field and associated infrastructure.
Key takeaways
"Targeting energy infrastructure constitutes a threat to global energy security, to the people of the region, and to its environment."
"We call on all parties to exercise restraint, adhere to international law, and work to de-escalate in a manner that preserves the region's security and stability."
