The Bahraini Ministry of Foreign Affairs emphasized that "patience does not equate to weakness" and reaffirmed the country's commitment to peace and stability in the region. However, Bahrain made it clear that its sovereignty and security, along with the protection of its people, are non-negotiable priorities.
In an official statement on Saturday, Bahrain condemned the launch of seven Iranian ballistic missiles toward Kuwait and Bahrain, which were successfully intercepted. The statement highlighted that "security is not built with missiles and drones, nor is stability maintained by planting mines," urging Iran to reveal the locations of sea mines and cooperate in their removal.
Bahrain called on Iran to immediately stop unjustified attacks and adopt a path of peace. It labeled the latest actions by Iran as "blatant aggression," which violate international laws and threaten the security and stability of the Gulf region.
The statement expressed Bahrain's confidence in the support of its regional allies and partners as it continues to take all necessary steps to ensure the nation's security.
Bahrain also urged Iran to comply with international laws governing maritime navigation and open crucial waterways without restrictions, ensuring safe passage for vessels. The country called for the establishment of a humanitarian corridor that would allow over 20,000 stranded sailors to safely return to their families.
