Britain's foreign secretary, David Cameron, called the Iranian attack - which involved hundreds of missiles and drones, nearly all of which were intercepted - reckless and dangerous, but a total failure.
President Emmanuel Macron of France urged Israel to avoid a military escalation and instead work with allies to isolate Tehran through sanctions, pressure on nuclear activities, and seeking a path to peace.
Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken emphasized the need to prevent further escalation in a flurry of calls on Sunday with counterparts from Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Turkey, Britain, and Germany.
Iranian officials signaled they were seeking to prevent further escalation, stating that Iran's retaliation was over unless Israel struck back.
