Ministers from the UK and Australia on Monday condemned Iran’s attacks on Israel, its supply of missiles and UAVs, and growing military ties with Russia at the Australia-UK Ministerial Consultations (AUKMIN) in London.

They also stressed that Iran must never develop nuclear weapons and urged accountability for human rights abuses, including the persecution of women, girls, and minorities.

"Ministers reaffirmed their determination that Iran must never develop a nuclear weapon, emphasizing that the ongoing escalation of its nuclear program lacks any credible civilian justification," the statement released on Tuesday read.
