Riyadh, March 25 (QNA) - The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states have welcomed the adoption by the Human Rights Council of the resolution submitted on behalf of the GCC states and the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan concerning the human rights implications arising from the unprovoked Iranian attacks on these countries, which received broad and exceptional support from more than 100 countries across various regional groups.

The adoption of this resolution underscores the unequivocal position of the international community, which totally rejects the blatant Iranian attacks on the territories of member states not involved in any conflict, and condemns the serious consequences of this aggression under international human rights law and its threat to international peace and security, said Jasem Mohamed Albudaiwi, the GCC Secretary-General, in a press release on Wednesday.

Albudaiwi praised the content of the adopted resolution, particularly its clear condemnation and strong denunciation of the consequences of the unprovoked and deliberate attacks waged by the Islamic Republic of Iran against civilians and critical civilian infrastructure.

He further noted that these attacks resulted in civilian casualties and extensive damage within the GCC states and the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, in addition to the broader implications of these unlawful Iranian attacks on regional and international stability.

Albudaiwi also welcomed the resolution's emphasis on the need for the Islamic Republic of Iran to adhere to its obligations regarding the protection of human rights and the principles of international law.

This, he said, includes respecting state sovereignty and territorial integrity, protecting civilians, immediately ceasing its violations, and fulfilling its obligation to provide reparations for damages resulting from these violations, as well as calling for engagement in dialogue and the use of peaceful means to resolve disputes.
