No need for further US military action against Iran, says Rubio
US Senator Marco Rubio said there is no need for additional US military operations against Iran, following explosions on three tankers.
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.
He emphasized that these attacks violate international law, threaten global peace and security, and require the Security Council to take immediate action to prevent their recurrence. 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.
