Bahrain has rejected a proposed permit and fee regime governing passage through the Strait of Hormuz, according to Anadolu Agency, which reported that the kingdom said Gulf states and Jordan have faced nearly 7,000 Iranian missile and drone attacks.
The report did not specify which party proposed the permit and fee arrangement or the mechanics of how it would have applied to shipping through the strategically vital waterway, one of the world's most important routes for oil and gas shipments.
The cited figure of nearly 7,000 missile and drone attacks against Gulf states and Jordan underscores the scale of the confrontation associated with the wider regional conflict involving Iran, though the timeframe over which these attacks are said to have occurred was not detailed in the available source.
Bahrain's rejection adds to a series of statements from Gulf states responding to developments around the Strait of Hormuz, a corridor that has featured prominently in the broader dispute between Iran and the United States, including a reported Iranian proposal to reopen the strait as part of a ceasefire framework.
No further details on Bahrain's alternative proposals, if any, or reactions from other Gulf states were included in the report.
