Arab condemnations of Adnoc tanker attack
Several Arab countries issued strong condemnations of the attack targeting two ADNOC oil tankers while passing through the Strait of Hormuz, which occurred on Thursday evening and did not result in any injuries. The UAE confirmed that Iran is responsible for the attack, considering it a blatant violation of UN Security Council Resolution 2817, which calls for freedom of navigation and condemns the targeting of commercial ships. Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Bahrain, and Egypt also condemned the assault, deeming it a threat to regional security and the stability of maritime routes. The Secretary-General of the Gulf Cooperation Council described the attack as a serious escalation. This comes after a similar attack on an ADNOC tanker less than a week ago, increasing the risk of escalating tensions in the Strait of Hormuz and raising concerns about the security of global oil supplies.
