Kuwait City: Kuwait on Tuesday became the latest Gulf Arab state to recall its ambassador from Iran in protest at attacks on Saudi diplomatic missions in the Islamic republic.

The attacks "represent a flagrant breach of international agreements and norms and a grave violation of Iran's international commitments for the security of diplomatic missions and the safety of diplomats," the official KUNA news agency cited the foreign ministry as saying.
