Gulf Cooperation Council states accuse Iran of war crimes regarding infrastructure attacks

The conflict between Iran and the United States has significantly escalated following the confirmed deaths of two US service members in a drone strike on a base in Jordan. The US has responded with expanded strikes against Iranian infrastructure, including bridges and a desalination plant, while Iran has issued direct threats of retaliation and is alleged to have conducted kinetic strikes against US-aligned targets in the Persian Gulf. The situation is characterized by direct kinetic engagement and heightened rhetoric, with a high confidence in the confirmed events and a medium-low confidence in emerging claims.
