Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi on Wednesday condemned Kuwait’s detention of four Iranian nationals following an alleged attack on their boat in the Persian Gulf.
In a post on the platform “X,” monitored by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), he said: “In a clear attempt to sow discord, Kuwait unlawfully attacked an Iranian vessel and detained four of our citizens in the Persian Gulf.”
He added: “This unlawful act took place near an island used by the United States to launch attacks against Iran.”
Araghchi called for the immediate release of the Iranian citizens, stressing that Iran reserves the right to respond.
