The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states affirmed in a statement today that Iran's targeting of infrastructure and civilian facilities in the Kingdom of Bahrain, Kuwait, and Jordan is a very dangerous escalation and constitutes a grave violation of international law and the United Nations Charter, and war crimes that require international accountability and prosecution.

Jassim Al-Budaiwi, Secretary-General of the Gulf Cooperation Council, condemned in the strongest terms the treacherous Iranian attacks that targeted the Kingdom of Bahrain, the State of Kuwait, and the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, and their targeting of infrastructure and civilian facilities, which resulted in injuries to a number of civilian workers in the State of Kuwait.

He stressed that Iran's actions constitute a very dangerous escalation, a grave violation of international law and the United Nations Charter, and war crimes that require international accountability and prosecution, as they involved targeting infrastructure and civilian facilities, in flagrant violation of all international norms and conventions, and a persistence in destabilizing the security and stability of the region.

In a related context, he stressed that the GCC stands united with the Kingdom of Bahrain, the State of Kuwait, and the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, and supports all measures they take to protect their security, sovereignty, and territorial integrity.
