Gulf countries prepare for possible chemical and nuclear attacks

As tensions rise between Israel and Iran, Gulf states are accelerating their emergency preparedness in anticipation of a potential regional spillover, particularly involving the threat of chemical or nuclear weapons.
On Thursday, Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Secretary General Jassem al-Budaiwi outlined the latest measures in an interview with the Saudi daily Al-Sharq al-Awsat."

The coordination among member states has reached advanced levels to prepare for various emergency scenarios, including those involving chemical, biological, radiological, or nuclear weapons," al-Budaiwi said.
He emphasized that the preparations are supported by sophisticated environmental and radiation monitoring systems, operated jointly through a regional emergency center.

The six GCC members—Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, and Bahrain—have also been conducting joint response exercises. As a precautionary step, the GCC has partially activated its emergency response center in light of the deteriorating regional security climate. Al-Budaiwi confirmed that no radiological irregularities have been detected to date.

Beyond preparedness, the GCC is also ramping up diplomatic efforts. The bloc is pressing the United States and the United Nations to push for an immediate ceasefire, warning that the ongoing conflict risks spiraling into a broader war. “This escalation between Israel and Iran threatens to unravel regional stability and could ignite a conflict that neither side intends,” al-Budaiwi cautioned.

Praying that it doesn't happen but we still need to take out Fordow and we need to do it now! Waiting on this only delays the inevitable and gives Iran more time to hit Israel, the US and other countries.

Maybe that was what China was doing with the cargo planes. Moving stuff. Hard to say
