Call for stronger regional cooperation to safeguard civilians and vital infrastructure
MANAMA: The Kingdom of Bahrain strongly condemned and denounced the continued blatant and unjustified Iranian attacks targeting the United Arab Emirates, which include the recent launch of two UAVs that were successfully engaged by UAE air defences.
In a statement carried by Bahrain News Agency, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said these actions are a flagrant violation of international law, the United Nations Charter, and the principles of good neighbourliness. Furthermore, these attacks constitute a direct breach of UN Security Council Resolution 2817 and existing regional ceasefire agreements.
