Kuwait’s Foreign Ministry has condemned “in the strongest terms, the repeated sinful Iranian attacks on the State of Kuwait, the latest of which occurred this morning”.

In a statement, the ministry denounced the incident as “a flagrant violation of its sovereignty, a direct threat to its security, stability, and the safety of its citizens”, as well as “a grave violation of the rules of international law, the United Nations Charter, and Security Council Resolution 2817”.

The ministry warned that “the continuation of these blatant attacks” at a time when diplomatic efforts are under way “constitutes a systematic undermining of de-escalation efforts”, while emphasising that Kuwait’s security and sovereignty “are a red line that cannot be compromised”.

“The State of Kuwait [has an] inherent and legitimate right to take all necessary measures to safeguard its sovereignty and protect its security and stability,” it added.
