Summary The GCC demanded Iran compensate Gulf states for attack damages, while Tehran accused regional countries of assisting US military operations.

DOHA (Dunya News) – The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) has demanded that Iran fully compensate Gulf countries for damages caused by attacks during the ongoing conflict.

Addressing the United Nations Security Council, GCC Secretary-General Jasem Albudaiwi said Iran had launched thousands of missile and drone attacks against Gulf countries, targeting airports, seaports, oil and gas facilities, power plants and residential areas.

Albudaiwi said Gulf countries were not parties to the war and had made efforts to prevent further escalation. He called for Iran to be held responsible for the attacks and their consequences.

The GCC secretary-general also stressed that any agreement with Iran must address issues including its nuclear programme, missiles, drones and support for armed groups.

Meanwhile, Iran's Deputy Ambassador to the United Nations, Gholamhossein, rejected the allegations.

He accused Gulf countries of assisting Washington in its attacks against Iran, arguing that they should also be held accountable for supporting the United States.
