Iran says Kuwait, Bahrain bear ‘direct and clear responsibility’ for ‘US attacks’

Iran’s Foreign Ministry condemns what it describes as US attacks on an Iranian oil tanker in the Strait of Hormuz and a telecommunications tower on Qeshm Island, saying they violated a ceasefire understanding and international law.

The ministry says Kuwait and Bahrain bore “direct and clear responsibility” for the attacks, alleging their territory and facilities had been used to support US military operations against Iran.

Tehran says it reserves the right to self-defense and will use all available means to respond, including by targeting the source of any future attacks.
