Iran Claims Gulf Neighbors Attacked Following US-Israel Strikes

According to the Israeli Times, Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman Baghaei confirmed on the 27th that Iran had been attacked by its Gulf neighbors. Previously, US media reported that Bahrain and Kuwait carried out secret air strikes on military targets in Iran at the beginning of July, claiming this was Iran's 'first direct retaliation'.

Since the military strikes against Iran by the United States and Israel at the end of February this year, Iran has launched counterattacks against U.S. military bases and other targets in the Middle East, resulting in several Gulf countries being involved in the conflict.

On July 27th, Baggae said, “These countries have violated international law and the principles of good neighborliness and friendship, by opening their territories to those who attacked Iran.”

In some circumstances, we know they independently participated in military aggression against Iran. Bağaçe said.

The Wall Street Journal recently quoted several sources as saying that Iran has repeatedly attacked American bases in Bahrain and Kuwait over the past few weeks. In retaliation, Bahrain and Kuwait secretly deployed fighter jets to carry out air strikes against Iran. The targets included Iranian drone and missile storage bases, as well as other military facilities. The UAE provided intelligence on the targets and defensive air support.

After the report was published, the Ambassador of Kuwait to the United States denied that Kuwait had been involved in attacking Iran. A spokesman for the Bahrain government did not respond to requests for comment.
