Jordan has condemned Iranian attacks on Bahrain and Kuwait, describing them as a “flagrant violation” of their sovereignty, a threat to regional security, and a dangerous escalation undermining efforts to restore stability, Al Jazeera reports.

The Jordanian foreign ministry says in a statement that the attacks constitute a blatant breach of international law and the United Nations Charter.

Jordan affirms its “absolute solidarity” with both Gulf nations and its support for any steps they take to protect their sovereignty, security and the safety of their citizens and residents.
