Bahrain condemned Iranian drone attacks on its territory on Saturday, asserting that the "continued attacks... at a time when regional and international efforts are moving towards de-escalation, place the sole responsibility on Tehran for undermining peace efforts".
In a statement posted on its state news agency, Bahrain's Ministry of Foreign Affairs said its territory was targeted by "a number of Iranian drones", calling it "a blatant violation of its sovereignty, a flagrant threat to the security of citizens and residents, and a blatant breach of international laws".
The ministry added that it reserved the full right to defend its sovereignty and security.
Iran said earlier it had carried out strikes against targets linked to US forces in the region, without identifying the targets or saying where they were located.
