An Iraqi source with close ties to Gulf states tells Kan News that a Gulf country may have carried out the overnight strike in southern Iran between Thursday and Friday, the one not conducted by Israel or the U.S.

He notes it has happened before during the war, mainly by the UAE, and that Gulf states are deeply unhappy with the current situation regarding Iran.

Turkish reports: Turkey has reportedly sold its S-400 air defense system to a Gulf state, possibly the UAE or Qatar. According to Hürriyet's Abdülkadir Selvi.

Who knows if another country is also striking…

UAE presidential adviser Anwar Gargash:

The Iranian attacks on Qatari and Saudi commercial tankers in the Strait of Hormuz, and the repeated aggression against Bahrain and Kuwait, are a clear sign Tehran is still unable to commit to de-escalation.

The Arab Gulf states cannot remain a target for Iran's hesitation between escalation and the path of rationality and peace.

The question for now is:

Which country will Iran decide to attack tonight?

Islamic regime favorites:

Kuwait, Bahrain, UAE, Israel
