Oman has condemned the recent attacks on its Gulf neighbours as a violation of international law and a threat to civilians, Al Jazeera reports.

The Omani Ministry of Foreign Affairs has expressed “full solidarity” with Bahrain and Kuwait and support for the measures the two countries are taking “to preserve their security and stability”.

“The Sultanate of Oman renews its call for restraint and avoiding escalation, and resorting to dialogue and diplomatic means to address crises and disputes,” it says.
