The call came after reported explosions in Isfahan, Iran, which Tehran downplayed and did not plan to retaliate against.

The joint statement condemned Israel's actions as a major escalation in the Middle East and a violation of international law.

Iran and Pakistan are working to improve their relationship following military conflicts this year.

During a visit to Pakistan, Iran's President Raisi pledged to increase trade between the two countries to $10 billion annually.

Raisi also warned of severe consequences if Israel attacks Iranian territory again, after Iran retaliated with missiles and drones following a suspected Israeli strike on the Iranian embassy in Damascus.

During a recent visit to Pakistan, Iran's President Raisi called for de-escalation by all parties and pledged to increase trade and energy cooperation between the two countries.

A major gas pipeline deal between Iran and Pakistan has been delayed due to geopolitical issues and international sanctions.
