In a separate statement, Kuwait has also expressed strong denunciation of the “reprehensible Iranian aggressions” against Bahrain, declaring them a “direct assault on the security of the Kingdom of Bahrain, its stability, and the safety of its people”.

Kuwait’s foreign ministry stressed that the aggressions “constitute an extremely dangerous escalation and reveal a hostile approach in dealing with neighbouring countries, undermining opportunities for de-escalation and pushing the region toward further tension”.

Kuwait emphasised that the security of Bahrain and other GCC countries was “indivisible” and renewed its support for Manama to take all measures needed to preserve its security, sovereignty, and stability.
