The Government of Oman issued a series of diplomatic condemnations between July 7 and July 8, 2026, denouncing a wave of violence across the Middle East and North Africa. On Tuesday, the Omani Foreign Ministry expressed unwavering solidarity with Syria and Morocco following two bombings in the center of Damascus and extremist plots targeting Moroccan security and stability.

Oman continued its diplomatic response on Wednesday by condemning military attacks against the territories of Bahrain and Kuwait. The government also denounced strikes on two commercial vessels, one Saudi and one Qatari, within the Strait of Hormuz.
