For years, Tehran offered the Gulf quiet diplomacy and careful engagement, along with promises that its dispute was with Israel or Washington, not its Arab neighbors.

Others struck military facilities, infrastructure, and civilian areas in Bahrain, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman, and the UAE, with the UAE absorbing more of those strikes than any other Gulf state.
