UAE Strongly Condemns Iranian Missile and Drone Strikes on Bahrain and Kuwait
The United Arab Emirates has issued a firm condemnation regarding the recent wave of missile and drone strikes launched by Iran against Bahrain and Kuwait. In an official statement, the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs characterized these hostile actions as a blatant infringement upon the sovereignty of both nations, emphasizing that such maneuvers pose a significant threat to regional peace and stability. The UAE has pledged its full solidarity with its neighbors, voicing support for any necessary measures taken by the two countries to protect their citizens and secure their borders.
The escalation began on June 28, when Bahrain reported that its territory had been targeted by ballistic missiles and drones, marking a continued pattern of aggression despite previous international warnings and Iranian commitments to refrain from such behavior. Similarly, Kuwait’s Ministry of Defence confirmed that its military successfully intercepted two hostile ballistic missiles detected within its airspace early in the morning. Kuwaiti officials have labeled these repeated incursions as "heinous" acts of aggression, signaling a deepening crisis as both nations stand firm against the continued military provocations from Iran.
