PUTRAJAYA
\nMalaysia has issued a strong condemnation of a series of military strikes that rocked West Asia on Friday, targeting the Islamic Republic of Iran and several other nations in the region.
\nThe Ministry of Foreign Affairs described the attacks as a grave violation of international law that threatens to plunge an already volatile region into deeper chaos.
\nIn an urgent statement released this evening from Wisma Putra, the ministry confirmed it was reacting to attacks against Iran and subsequent retaliatory strikes affecting Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, and Qatar.
\n\u201cMalaysia strongly condemns the attacks against Iran and the subsequent retaliatory attacks against several countries in the region\u2026 on 28 February 2026,\u201d the statement read.
\nPutrajaya framed the military actions as a direct affront to the foundational principles of international order, arguing they violate the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the affected nations.
\nThe ministry specifically pointed to the prohibition on the use of force enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations.
\n\u201cSuch unilateral military measures risk further destabilising an already fragile region and endangering civilian lives,\u201d the press release stated, emphasizing the potential for the conflict to spiral out of control.
\nWith tensions at a critical peak, the Malaysian government made an urgent appeal to all parties involved to exercise maximum restraint.
\nThe ministry warned that any further escalation could have consequences far beyond West Asia, potentially destabilizing global security and economic stability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
