25. They targeted embassies and other locations

but as I wrote -

I.e., they were going after American assets in those "close-by" countries

Instead of parachuting in to "correct some record", how about doing some searches on your own and you might find something like this (which is outside of the LBN 12 hour cutoff) -

Gulf states, encouraged by Donald Trump, are on the verge of ending their neutrality in the war against Iran in reprisal for Tehran's repeated "reckless and indiscriminate attacks" on their territory and infrastructure.

The calls, led by the United Arab Emirates from inside the six-country Gulf Cooperation Council, are for the Arab states to act in self-defence against Iran, but it would be a huge step for Gulf leaders in effect to side with Israel in a war that will determine the future shape of the Middle East, probably to the advantage of Israel.

Yasmine Fariouk, Gulf and Arabian peninsula project director for the International Crisis Group, said: �The Gulf countries now are at a point where there�s a lot of anger at Iran. Many of them have invested a lot in the detente with Iran and in mediating and trying to find solutions only to find that Iran still sees them as a platform for its bigger war with the US and with Israel.�

There is also some dismay at the US. One Saudi Arabian official complained to Al Jazeera about US priorities. �The United States abandoned the Gulf states and redirected its air defence to protect Israel. They left all the Gulf states that host American military bases at the mercy of Iranian strikes,� the official said.
