Oman says it is engaging global leaders to prevent further regional escalation

Oman’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said on X that Foreign Minister Sayyid  Badr  Albusaidi has conducted a series of phone calls with regional and global counterparts.

The discussions, the ministry tweeted, are part of ongoing efforts "to contain the dangerous military escalation and tensions in the region," sparked by Israel's attacks on Iranian territory on Friday.

In these conversations, Sayyid Albusaidi "emphasized the importance of halting the aggression and deterring the aggressor through peaceful means, based on international law and justice."

He added that the goal is to "prevent further bloodshed, destruction, and loss of life, and to safeguard the security, stability, and the supreme interests of the region and its peoples."
