Bahrain summons Iraqi envoy as pro-Iranian attacks persist in Gulf
"Bahrain's Ministry of Foreign Affairs strongly condemned the continued malicious drone attacks launched from Iraq towards Bahrain and several Gulf Cooperation Council countries, calling on Baghdad to address these threats and attacks urgently and responsibly."
"During the United States-Israel war on Iran, Iraq has become a staging ground for a secondary conflict as drones and missiles are launched by Iran-aligned armed groups repeatedly targeting the Gulf states and Jordan."
"Last month, several Gulf countries and Jordan demanded in a joint statement that Baghdad act immediately to stop attacks from its territory by Iran-aligned groups, emphasizing the urgency of the situation."
"Baghdad has categorically rejected the use of its territory to target Gulf states or Jordan, stating that it is taking necessary measures in accordance with the constitution and the law."
Bahrain has summoned an Iraqi envoy in response to ongoing drone attacks from pro-Iranian groups in Iraq, which threaten regional stability. The Bahraini Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned these attacks, urging Baghdad to take urgent action. Similar concerns were expressed by Saudi Arabia, highlighting a growing alarm among Gulf states. Iraq has rejected the use of its territory for such attacks and is attempting to manage its relationships with Arab neighbors amidst these tensions, which complicate its diplomatic efforts.
