Cairo, July 15 (QNA) – The Arab League has reaffirmed that the Iranian attacks on Oman, two UAE oil tankers, and Kuwait are totally unacceptable.
This came in telephone conversations Secretary-General Nabil Fahmy held Wednesday with the foreign ministers of the three countries.
Discussions with Badr Albusaidi, Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, and Sheikh Jarrah Jaber Al Ahmad Al Sabah, Fahmy slammed the assaults as criminal, saying they violate international law and UN Security Council Resolution 2817.

Fahmy called on the international community to assume its responsibilities in keeping further escalation at bay.
