Tehran said Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar, the UAE, and Jordan are complicit in unlawful US-Israeli attacks
Iran has demanded that five Arab states hosting US bases pay reparations for American and Israeli airstrikes on its territory.
In a letter to the UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres on Monday, Iranian envoy Amir Saeid Iravani argued that Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar, the UAE, and Jordan had allowed the US to use their territory to attack Iran and, in some cases, were directly involved in "unlawful armed attacks targeting civilian objects."
Iravani added that the Arab states "should make full reparation to the Islamic Republic of Iran, including compensation for all material and moral damage sustained as a result of their internationally wrongful acts."
The Gulf states had previously demanded that Iran be held liable for war damage, a claim Iravani rejected as "legally untenable and fundamentally divorced from the factual and legal realities."
The US and Israel launched strikes on Iran on February 28, stating that the goal was to dismantle Iran's nuclear and ballistic missile programs. The attacks killed dozens of senior officials, including Iran's longtime supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, as well as more than 1,300 civilians. In addition to military sites, the US and Israel targeted energy infrastructure, bridges, universities, and schools.
Iran responded by striking US bases in the region and civilian infrastructure in Gulf states, including oil and gas facilities, airports, and seaports. Tehran said the strikes were an exercise of its right to self-defense.
