Gulf and Arab countries, along with the United States, have condemned Iran’s “indiscriminate and reckless missile and drone attacks.”
“These unjustified strikes targeted sovereign territory, endangered civilian populations, and damaged civilian infrastructure,” said a statement issued on Sunday by Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and the US.
They strongly condemned “Iran’s indiscriminate and reckless missile and drone attacks against sovereign territories across the region.”
Tehran’s “actions represent a dangerous escalation that violates the sovereignty of multiple states and threatens regional stability.”
“The targeting of civilians and of countries not engaged in hostilities is reckless and destabilizing behavior,” said the statement.
“We stand united in defense of our citizens, sovereignty, and territory, and reaffirm our right to self-defense in the face of these attacks,” the Arab countries and the US said.
He also stressed commitment to regional security and commended the effective air and missile defense cooperation that has prevented far greater loss of life and destruction.
