Oman's Foreign Ministry condemned military strikes in Bahrain and Kuwait and attacks on two Saudi and Qatari merchant ships in the Strait of Hormuz, calling for restraint and de-escalation, according to N12.
Oman's Foreign Ministry issued a statement Wednesday condemning military strikes it said were carried out in Bahrain and Kuwait, as well as attacks on two merchant vessels — one Saudi and one Qatari — in the Strait of Hormuz. The statement called on all parties to exercise restraint and halt the escalation, warning that the rising military tensions in the region threaten security, maritime safety, international trade, and energy supplies.
The statement comes amid a period of heightened military activity in the Persian Gulf, including US strikes on Iranian positions and IRGC threats to re-close the Strait of Hormuz, as The Zioneer has reported in previous coverage. The precise timing and actors behind the strikes referenced by Oman remain unclear, and no independent confirmation of the incidents has been published at this hour.
