Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi to visit Bahrain, Kuwait

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi will depart on a tour of Bahrain and Kuwait today, state-affiliated media has announced. It comes as Israel is said to be preparing a response to an Iranian missile barrage following the killing of Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah. “We do not exclude any country from our consultation. This is everyone’s duty to maintain peace and security in the region,” a spokesman for the foreign ministry said on Monday.
