Bahrain has condemned Iran’s launch of seven ballistic missiles towards its territory and that of Kuwait early on Saturday, calling it a flagrant violation of sovereignty and a threat to Gulf security.
– In a Foreign Ministry statement, Bahrain said the missiles were successfully intercepted and praised the vigilance of its armed forces and those of Kuwait.
– It accused Iran of breaching UN Security Council Resolution 2817 (2026), which condemned Iranian attacks and any efforts to close the Strait of Hormuz or disrupt international navigation.
– Bahrain also called on Iran to immediately cease what it described as unjustified attacks, fully open the Strait of Hormuz without restrictions, disclose naval mine locations, and allow more than 20,000 stranded sailors to leave the region safely.
– It added that its patience “does not imply weakness” and that defending its sovereignty was a red line, pledging to take all legitimate measures to protect its security.
