Gulf states seek UN mandate for force to protect Strait of Hormuz

The call for military intervention indicates rising tensions in the Gulf region, which could significantly disrupt global oil supplies and increase military confrontations.

The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) has called for a UN Security Council authorization to use force in protecting the Strait of Hormuz from Iranian attacks, impacting global shipping and fuel supplies. Iran's actions are seen as a response to recent US-Israeli military strikes that have intensified conflict in the region.
