"We've seen that, but we also are very worried and concerned about the reported exchange of fire we've seen between the U.S. and Iran over the last day or so. And we encourage both parties to respect the ceasefire that they had announced. The SG's (Secretary-General) position, I think, has been consistent from day one. He wants the restoration of full freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz."

The United Nations expressed concern over the recent development of the conflict between the United States and Iran, calling on both parties to observe their ceasefire.
The U.S. military carried out fresh overnight strikes in Iran, targeting a military site that Washington said posed a threat to U.S. forces and commercial vessels in the region, multiple U.S. media outlets reported on Wednesday.
U.S. forces also intercepted drones launched from Iran, according to CBS News, citing a U.S. official.
The official described the strikes as defensive, asserting the U.S.-Iran ceasefire is still considered to be holding.
Early Thursday, Iranian media reported three explosions east of the port city of Bandar Abbas.
Iran's Islamic Revolution Guard Corps said it carried out strikes Thursday morning targeting a U.S. air base in response to the U.S. attacks against Bandar Abbas.
"We've seen that, but we also are very worried and concerned about the reported exchange of fire we've seen between the U.S. and Iran over the last day or so. And we encourage both parties to respect the ceasefire that they had announced. The SG's (Secretary-General) position, I think, has been consistent from day one. He wants the restoration of full freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz," said Stephane Dujarric, spokesman for UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres at a press briefing.
In a positive development, U.S. and Iranian negotiators have reached an agreement on a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to extend the ceasefire by 60 days and launch talks on Iran's nuclear program, but U.S. President Donald Trump has yet to give his final approval, U.S. media Axios reported Thursday, citing U.S. officials and a regional source.
Iran has also not confirmed its acceptance, though the report, citing U.S. officials, claimed that the Iranian negotiators had said they had the necessary approvals and were prepared to sign.
