RIYADH: Saudi Arabia foreign ministry condemned Iran’s attacks on Bahrain and Kuwait on Saturday.
The two Gulf countries intercepted seven missiles fired by Iran on Saturday.
In a statement on X, the Saudi foreign ministry said Iranian aggressions pose a threat to regional and international security.
“Iran’s ongoing attacks undermine international efforts to restore security,” said the statement.
The ministry said Saudi Arabia support Bahrain and Kuwait in the measures they are taking to safeguard their security.
