The United States and a number of Arab countries have strongly condemned Iran's ballistic missile and drone attacks in the region. These attacks were directed against the territories of several sovereign states and threatened the safety of the civilian population.
According to Redaksiya, the United States, Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates issued a joint statement condemning the drone and missile attacks carried out by the Islamic Republic of Iran in the region. These attacks were directed against the sovereign territories of Bahrain, Iraq (including the Kurdistan Region of Iraq), Jordan, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.
The statement noted that these attacks endangered civilian lives and damaged civilian infrastructure. Iran's actions have been assessed as a dangerous escalation that violates the sovereignty of several states and threatens regional stability. Attacks directed against non-belligerent countries and civilians have been characterized as irresponsible and destabilizing behavior.
The United States and its partner countries have demonstrated unity in defending their citizens, sovereignty, and territories. They have reaffirmed their right to self-defense in the face of such attacks. The countries, stating their commitment to security in the region, have appreciated the effective air and missile defense cooperation that has prevented greater losses and destruction.
