The United Arab Emirates urged on Sunday an immediate halt to escalation to "avoid serious repercussions" in the region following strikes by the US on Iran's nuclear facilities.

It warned that such actions could lead the region to "new levels of instability," according to a statement from the foreign ministry.

Qatar also said on Sunday that dangerous tensions following the US strikes on Iran's nuclear sites would lead to "catastrophic repercussions" on both regional and international levels.

In a post on X, the foreign ministry deplored the "deterioration" to the status quo after the US strikes.

It called on all parties “to exercise wisdom, restraint, and to avoid further escalation."

Oman condemned the airstrikes, saying they escalated tensions in the region.

The US airstrikes threaten “to expand the scope of the conflict and constitute a serious violation of international law and the United Nations charter,” a spokesperson for Oman’s foreign ministry said in a statement.

Oman was a mediator in the nuclear talks between Iran and the US that have been upended by the Israel-Iran war.
