In early September, foreign ministers from Iraq, the United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia held discussions focused on regional security. These talks followed reports of drone attacks on a Saudi Arabian East-West pipeline, which Riyadh claimed originated from Iraqi territory. In response, Baghdad stated it is taking measures to prevent its land from being used to threaten neighbors. Discussions also addressed the security situation in Yemen and maritime security near the Bab al-Mandab Strait. Subsequent diplomatic engagements included talks between Egypt and Lebanon, where Egypt reaffirmed support for Lebanese sovereignty and called for the implementation of UN Security Council Resolution 1701.
