Iran has formally demanded compensation from five Middle Eastern countries, accusing them of assisting the United States and Israel in attacks on Iranian territory. The countries named are Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Qatar, and Jordan. According to a report by Anadolu Agency on April 14, Iran’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Amir Saeid Iravani, sent an official letter to UN Secretary-General António Guterres and the President of the Security Council on Monday.

In the letter, Iran claimed that its armed forces had evidence showing that the mentioned countries allowed their territories to be used by the US and Israel to carry out strikes against Iran. The letter further alleged that these nations violated international obligations by providing military facilities to aggressors and participating in illegal operations. Iran cited UN General Assembly Resolution 3314 of December 14, 1974, to argue that such actions were unlawful.

Iran stated that the five countries must take full responsibility for the material and moral damages caused by the attacks, asserting that their actions constituted a serious breach of international law.
