At a United Nations Security Council session, Jasem Mohamed Al-Budaiwi, Secretary-General of the Gulf Cooperation Council, demanded that Iran pay compensation for damage inflicted on the region, infohub.kz reports.
According to him, the organization's members reject any encroachment on their security, sovereignty and territorial integrity. He stressed that the attacks they face constitute a flagrant violation of international law and a direct threat to international peace and security.
"Since February 28, 2026, GCC member states have been subjected to attacks by Iran involving more than 7,000 missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles. The targets of these attacks included airports, seaports, energy infrastructure facilities, power plants and water desalination plants, as well as residential areas and civilian infrastructure. People were injured, serious damage was caused to infrastructure, and significant harm was inflicted on the marine environment in the waters of the Persian Gulf," the speaker said.
He again condemned these attacks on behalf of the GCC, holding Iran fully responsible for their consequences. Jasem Mohamed Al-Budaiwi called on Iran to pay compensation for the damage, losses and injuries resulting from these unlawful actions.
