Gulf States Welcome Ceasefire Deal Amid Ongoing Iranian Attacks
The Gulf States have expressed support for a ceasefire agreement between the United States, Israel, and Iran, despite ongoing missile and rocket attacks from Iran. Oman and Saudi Arabia were among the first to welcome the ceasefire, which aims to halt fighting for two weeks and initiate negotiations in Islamabad, Pakistan. Saudi Arabia has called for an end to attacks on Gulf facilities, as missile strikes continue in Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates. Iranian proxy groups, including Iraq's Islamic Resistance and Lebanon's Hezbollah, have acknowledged the ceasefire. However, Iran continues to launch rockets and drones at Gulf targets, causing injuries and damage in the UAE and Bahrain.
