Several Persian Gulf states, including Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the UAE, Bahrain, and Kuwait, have declared their neutrality in the escalating conflict between Iran and Israel. These nations have assured Iran that they will not permit their territories or airbases to be used for any attacks against Iran. This decision, reported by Reuters citing two sources, highlights the complex geopolitical dynamics in the region, as these countries host US military bases. The neutrality stance aims to prevent any escalation that might endanger their oil facilities.
