Iran calls for ‘security framework’ with Gulf countries

Iran’s foreign minister has called for the establishment of a security framework with Gulf nations after Iranian strikes against US bases in the Middle East in retaliation for US attacks.

“We should reach a new framework that includes all countries in the region and without the presence or interference of any country from outside the region,” Abbas Araghchi said at a news conference on a visit to the Iraqi capital Baghdad.

Bahrain and Kuwait both say Iran hit them with drone and missile fire overnight after new US air attacks on Iran.
