According to CoinMeta, the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) has approved the establishment of a joint pre-command center in Kuwait, indicating a desire to deepen military integration following the Iran war. GCC Secretary-General Jassem Al-Budayfi stated that a unified military command center will be allocated troops to it. This announcement was made after a meeting of GCC defense ministers held in Bahrain. This year, six GCC countries, including Qatar and Oman, have been subjected to thousands of attacks by Iranian drones and missiles. Tehran claimed that its counterattacks were aimed at American assets, although many of the attacks targeted civilian targets.
