The Muslim World League (MWL) strongly condemned on Tuesday “the continued treacherous and indiscriminate Iranian” attacks against Saudi Arabia and other countries in the region.

In a statement, MWL Secretary-General and Chairman of the Organization of Muslim Scholars Mohammed Al-Issa slammed the Iranian aggression against peaceful neighboring countries.

He described Tehran’s actions as a “terrorism and corruption” that “violate religious values, international and humanitarian laws, and bilateral agreements, and breach the principles of good neighborliness.”

Drones Hit Fuel Tank at Oman’s Duqm Port

Drones targeted an Omani port on Tuesday, hitting a fuel tank, state media said, as Iran presses its campaign against the Gulf in response to US and Israeli strikes.

"A security source reported that fuel tanks at the commercial port of Duqm were targeted by a number of drones, one of which hit a fuel tank. The resulting damage was contained without any human casualties," the Oman News Agency (ONA) said.

The attack is the second on the port in three days, as Iran broadens its targets in the Gulf.

Oman, which played a mediation role in talks between the US and Iran, has called for a ceasefire in the war.

On Sunday, a worker was injured when two drones struck the same port. One hit accommodation for workers, while debris from the other landed near fuel tanks, reported ONA.

They were the first attacks on the Sultanate since war broke out, with Oman facing strikes despite acting as a mediator between Iran and the United States just days prior to the conflict.

On Monday, one person was killed in an attack on an oil tanker off the coast of the capital Muscat that caused an explosion and fire, authorities said.

The blast in the vessel's main engine room killed one crew member, an Indian national.
