China's Foreign Ministry warns of Middle East situation spiraling out of control
China warned that the situation in the Middle East could spiral out of control after US President Donald Trump threatened to destroy Iranian power plants if Tehran did not reopen the Strait of Hormuz, according to AFP.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian told a press conference, in response to a question about Trump's threats: "If the war expands and the situation deteriorates further, the entire region could enter a situation that is out of control."
