The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) has urged the United Nations to take action against Iran and the Houthi militia over security threats to the Gulf region. GCC Secretary-General Jassem Mohammed Albudaiwi addressed the UN Security Council, condemning Iranian and Houthi attacks that have targeted airports, ports, energy facilities, and residential areas since February 2026.

Albudaiwi also called for accountability, condemning Iran as fully responsible for the attacks and supporting the implementation of Security Council resolutions condemning the actions of both Iran and the Houthi militia.
