The Kuwaiti Ministry of Foreign Affairs summoned on Mondau Iranian Ambassador to Kuwait Mohammad Toutounchi for the second time, protesting over the continued Iranian attacks targeting Kuwaiti territory with ballistic missiles and drones.
The ministry stressed that the ongoing attacks represent a blatant violation of Kuwait's sovereignty and airspace, as well as a serious breach of the United Nations Charter and international law, reported Kuwait’s state news agency KUNA.
The ministry reiterated Kuwait's strong condemnation and firm rejection of all blatant Iranian attacks against Kuwaiti territory and airspace, particularly those targeting vital civilian facilities and infrastructure.
The ministry underscored Kuwait's inherent right to self-defense in accordance with Article 51 of the UN Charter, noting that the country will take all necessary measures to protect its territory, citizens, and residents in a manner consistent with international law.
The security and stability of the member states of the Gulf Cooperation Council are indivisible, it added, stressing that any infringement on the sovereignty of any GCC state is a direct threat to the collective security of the bloc.
It called for the immediate cessation of all hostile acts that cannot be justified under any pretext.
