Oman's Foreign Ministry summoned Iran's ambassador, Musa Farhank, for a protest meeting over drone attacks on sites in the country, according to a statement. The diplomatic reprimand follows overnight incidents reported earlier today.
Oman's Foreign Ministry stated that it summoned Iranian Ambassador Musa Farhank for a protest meeting over drone attacks on sites in the country, according to a statement. The summoning was first reported by The Zioneer earlier this afternoon, with the ministry now providing the ambassador's name and specifying the reason as drone attacks on Omani sites. The move is the latest in a series of diplomatic protests by Gulf states against Iranian drone and missile activity. In recent weeks, Qatar summoned the Iranian ambassador over a tanker attack, and Bahrain condemned Iranian drone launches. No details have been provided on the specific drone attacks referenced or the ambassador's response.
