AMMAN — The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has condemned the Iranian attacks targeting Bahrain, describing them as a flagrant violation of the Gulf nation’s sovereignty, a threat to its security, stability, and territorial integrity.

 

In a statement on Sunday, the ministry slammed Iranian attacks as a “dangerous escalation, and a blatant breach of international law and the United Nations Charter.”

 

The ministry affirmed Jordan's solidarity with Bahrain, expressing full support for all measures taken by the country to protect its sovereignty, security, and the safety of its citizens and residents, according to a ministry statement.

 

Blasts and sirens rang out over Bahrain and authorities urged residents to seek shelter on Sunday as Iran's Guards said they had attacked the Gulf nation.

 

The interior ministry in an X post urged "residents to remain calm, proceed to the nearest safe location, and follow news through official channels for the protection of public safety".
