Jasem Mohamed al-Budaiwi, secretary-general of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), says the strikes “undermine international and regional efforts aimed at establishing security and peace and resolving the crisis,” Al Jazeera reports.

“Treacherous attacks constitute a direct threat to the security, stability and safety of citizens and residents on the lands of Bahrain and Kuwait, and a clear violation of the rules of international law and the charter of the United Nations,” a statement quoted him as saying.

“The GCC affirmed its support for all measures taken by the Kingdom of Bahrain and the State of Kuwait to strengthen their security, safeguard their sovereignty, and preserve the integrity of their territories,” he added.
