The General Command of the Bahrain Defense Force announced that Iran continues its systematic hostile approach through its heinous attacks with missiles and drones targeting civilians in the Kingdom of Bahrain.

Egypt, in a statement issued by its Ministry of Foreign Affairs, expressed its unwavering support for Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait, reaffirming its solidarity with the three countries in confronting these unacceptable attacks. The statement also voiced support for all measures taken to preserve their security and stability and to protect their citizens and national resources.

Egypt emphasized that the security and stability of Arab states are inseparable from Egyptian and broader Arab national security. It renewed its firm rejection of any actions that infringe upon the sovereignty of states or threaten their security and territorial integrity.

The statement further highlighted the importance of de-escalation and adherence to the principles of international law in order to preserve regional peace and stability.

United Arab Emirates

The United Arab Emirates has condemned in the strongest terms the terrorist and unprovoked ballistic missile and drone attacks by Iran that targeted the Kingdom of Bahrain, the State of Kuwait, and the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan.

In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) affirmed that these terrorist attacks constitute a flagrant violation of the sovereignty of the three brotherly nations and a threat to their security and stability.

Arab Parliament

The Arab Parliament has voiced strong support for Jordan, Bahrain and Kuwait following what it described as Iranian attacks on the three countries, warning that such actions threaten regional stability and undermine the sovereignty of Arab states.

Arab Parliament Speaker Mohammed bin Ahmed Al Yamahi said the actions represent a serious escalation that runs counter to international norms governing relations between neighboring countries. He stressed that attacks targeting the territory of any Arab nation are not isolated events but challenges to the broader security framework of the region.

The statement reaffirmed the Arab Parliament's backing for the measures being taken by Jordan, Bahrain and Kuwait to protect their borders, national interests and internal stability. Al Yamahi emphasized that Arab security is interconnected and that threats facing one country have implications for the wider Arab community.

He also urged the international community, particularly the United Nations Security Council, to take a more active role in preventing further escalation and ensuring respect for international law. Failure to address such incidents, he warned, could deepen regional tensions and complicate efforts aimed at maintaining peace and stability.

The Arab Parliament reiterated its call for adherence to the principles of sovereignty, territorial integrity and non-interference, stressing that dialogue and respect for international legal frameworks remain essential to preserving security across the region.
