Arab Gulf states, including Saudi Arabia, Oman, and Qatar, have cautioned the Trump administration against military action against Iran, fearing it could destabilize the global oil market and harm the U.S. economy. Meanwhile, Trump encouraged ongoing protests in Iran, stating “help is on its way” and condemning the regime’s violence against demonstrators, with reports indicating around 3,000 deaths since protests began. Amid rising tensions, the White House is set to discuss potential responses to the situation. Communication restrictions in Iran have led to increased casualties and governmental crackdowns on information access.
