The Arab League has condemned Iranian attacks against Gulf states as a “massive strategic error,” with Secretary-General Ahmed Aboul Gheit stating on Sunday that Arab nations are speaking with one voice in rejecting any violation of their sovereignty. “Arab countries are not a party to the ongoing war, nor did they want it to break out,” Aboul Gheit said. He noted that Arab states had previously declared their refusal to allow their territories or airspace to be used as launchpads for military operations. Iraqi Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein also condemned attacks targeting various areas across Iraq, stating that the purpose of these “aggressive strikes” was to drag the country into the regional conflict. Hussein noted that while Iraq supports negotiations between Iran and the United States, it condemns both the ongoing military campaigns against Iran and the expansion of the war.
