BREAKING: Iran reportedly launched its largest coordinated military operation since the ceasefire overnight, targeting multiple Gulf Arab states while notably excluding Saudi Arabia from the wave of attacks.
According to initial reports, Iranian strikes were directed at several Gulf countries in what appears to have been the broadest regional operation since the ceasefire came into effect. Saudi Arabia, however, was not among the reported targets.
The reason behind Saudi Arabia’s exclusion has not been officially confirmed. Analysts suggest several possible explanations, including recent diplomatic engagement between Tehran and Riyadh, Saudi Arabia’s efforts to avoid direct involvement in the conflict, or broader strategic calculations by Iran. None of these explanations have been officially verified.
Regional governments have not yet released a full assessment of the attacks, and Iranian authorities have not publicly explained why Saudi Arabia was spared.
The reported strikes are expected to heighten tensions across the Gulf and raise concerns about the durability of the ceasefire as regional and international leaders monitor the rapidly evolving situation.
