US EditionHamas urges key ally Iran to halt attacks on Gulf states

- Hamas issued a public statement urging its "brothers in Iran" to avoid targeting neighbouring Gulf states on Saturday, March 14, 2026.
- Escalating strikes over the past two weeks have killed at least 18 people across Gulf and wider Middle East countries, including six each in the UAE and Kuwait.
- Hamas leaders say they have contacted Iranian officials and regional intermediaries such as Qatar and Turkey, while Palestinian sources report disrupted contact with senior IRGC figures at the war's start.
- Hamas appealed to governments and international organisations to intervene, urging regional nations to cooperate and halt the aggression, while Iran has not publicly commented as of Saturday.
- Iran's historical support for Hamas makes the public rebuke striking, and Hezbollah's entry and Israeli strikes in Lebanon have killed nearly 800 people since March 2, intensifying regional spillover.
