The statement referred to Iranian attacks on Bahrain, Iraq - including the Iraqi Kurdistan Region - Jordan, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.
"The Islamic Republic's actions represent a dangerous escalation that violates the sovereignty of multiple states and threatens regional stability," the seven states warned.
