Gulf states are actively lobbying Washington to prevent Israel from launching attacks on Iran's oilfields. According to three Gulf sources, this diplomatic effort highlights the growing concerns in the region over potential escalation and instability. The Gulf states fear that their own oil facilities could come under fire from Tehran's proxies if the conflict escalates. This move comes amid signals from Iran indicating its intention to target regional oil facilities if its infrastructure is hit, Reuters reported.
