Regex: Select phone number surrounded by other numbers

I'm trying to select with regex the (fake) phone number in the code below. Sometimes, the phone number has spaces and sometimes it doesn't. Obviously, I want to avoid selecting the other numbers, and I would also like to avoid the + symbol.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Example 1:

Without all informations, I suggest this pattern:

: \+?\K\d+(?: \d+)*$

Perhaps it is better to add an exhaustive list of countries in an alternation anchored to the start of the line before. It depends of your requirements. Something like this:

^(?:Argentine|France|Singapoure)\b[^\n\r:]*: \+?\K\d+(?: \d+)*$

(all on the left of \K isn't in the whole match result).
