Gulf states condemn Iran's attacks and affirm right to respond

Several Gulf states have strongly condemned what they call Iran's 'heinous' and 'indiscriminate' attacks, labeling them an 'aggression' and a violation of sovereignty. They have affirmed their legal right to respond to these actions.

Other countries, including Turkey, Bangladesh, and France, have also criticized Iran's strategy, with France stating it is 'ready' to defend Gulf states. China has urged regional unity against external interference, while Iran has denied planning any military attack on Oman.
