He said the attacks targeting vital facilities and residential areas were launched by Iran and described the strikes as a violation of Bahrain’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.

He said the attacks “flagrantly violated international law and the UN Charter”

The envoy expressed the resolve that Bahrain would take a “firm stand against such aggression”, which he called an “attack on the collective security of the entire region”.
