Amman, Aug. 1 (Petra) – Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Secretary-General Jassem Budaiwi condemned Iranian attacks targeting a government facility and civilian vehicles belonging to a private company on Bubiyan Island in Kuwait.
In a statement issued Saturday and published on the GCC's official website, Budaiwi said the attacks were "a continuation of Iran's hostile approach to destabilising security and stability in the region." He described the attacks as a blatant act of aggression and a flagrant violation of Kuwait's sovereignty, warning that they pose a direct threat to the country's security and stability, as well as to the safety of its citizens and residents.
He added that the attacks constitute a serious breach of international law and the United Nations Charter.
Budaiwi reaffirmed the GCC's full solidarity with Kuwait and its support for all measures the country takes to safeguard its security, sovereignty and territorial integrity.
