Four civilians killed and 12 injured in two strikes
Iranian Shahed drones most likely used in attacks on civilian infrastructure
Attacks violated international humanitarian law and may constitute war crimes
Iranian authorities killed and injured civilians in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia in violation of international humanitarian law, and as part of a wider pattern of strikes on Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, Amnesty International said today.
The conflict – which began after the USA and Israel’s unlawful attacks against Iran on 28 February 2026 – sparked a series of attacks by Iranian authorities and allied armed groups on the Gulf region, including against civilian infrastructure throughout the GCC with at least 28 deaths and hundreds of injuries reported to date.
