Aboul Gheit Condemns Blatant Iranian Attacks on Kuwait, Bahrain

Ahmed Aboul Gheit, Secretary-General of the League of Arab States, strongly condemned the blatant Iranian attacks targeting civilian facilities in the State of Kuwait and the Kingdom of Bahrain through the use of ballistic missiles and drones on 3 June.

Mr. Aboul Gheit stressed that the unjustified Iranian attacks against civilian objects and vital facilities, including Kuwait International Airport, which resulted in casualties, injuries, and significant material damage, constitute a dangerous escalation and a flagrant violation of the Charter of the United Nations, international humanitarian law, the Geneva Conventions of 1949, and their Additional Protocols. He called on the Iranian side to immediately and unconditionally cease these criminal attacks and to abandon its policy of provocation and escalation, which casts a shadow over regional security and stability.

Gamal Roshdy, the official spokesperson for the Secretary-General of the League of Arab States, conveyed Mr. Aboul Gheit’s renewed affirmation of full solidarity with the State of Kuwait and the Kingdom of Bahrain, and his unwavering support for all legitimate measures and actions they undertake to safeguard their sovereignty, ensure the security of their citizens, and preserve their territorial integrity.
