- Jordan issued a strong condemnation of an IRGC-linked infiltration attempt on Kuwait’s Bubiyan Island.
- Amman reaffirmed its "absolute solidarity" with Kuwait, backing all security measures taken to protect its citizens and land.
The Jordanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates issued a statement on Tuesday, condemning the infiltration of an armed group affiliated with the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) into Kuwaiti soil.
The group reportedly targeted Bubiyan Island, a strategic location in northeastern Kuwait.
Jordan described the move as a "flagrant violation" of Kuwaiti sovereignty and a "dangerous threat" to regional security that openly defies international law and the UN Charter.
Strategic solidarity in a shaky truce
Jordan’s Ministry emphasized its total rejection of any actions that undermine the security of "brotherly Kuwait."
This diplomatic support comes at a precarious time, as the 2026 regional ceasefire remains under immense pressure from a series of "gray zone" attacks, including drone strikes on regional shipping and airspace violations.
Amman has increasingly positioned itself as a key security partner for the GCC states during the world, frequently participating in joint condemnations of Iranian-linked proxy activities.
The Ministry’s statement concluded by reaffirming Jordan’s support for all measures Kuwait takes to safeguard its national stability and the safety of its residents.
