Default Middle East Patches for Identification

Can anyone tell me which country these belong to, and what units wear or wore them please?
1 to 10 all appear to be from the same country as they are all the same type manufacture.
11 may be from Saudi Arabia. If so, what unit?
12 may be from Iraq, and again, if so, what unit?
I have had these for some years but have no idea what they are.

Hello,

1 to 10 look like Jordanian but I could be wrong.

11 I am guessing that is Saudi Air Force Anti Aircraft School?

12. Is for sure, Iraqi from 1980s-1990s Commandos or Paratroopers SSI ( I will have to check my notes as to which one it belongs too.)

Many thanks for the info Redstar. You may be right in thinking 1 - 10 are Jordanian. With this info, I'll try to find out more.
I also thought 11 was Saudi Arabian.
Thanks also the ID on 12. I appreciate your input.

I don't think 1-10 are Jordanian. Certainly the crossed dagger badge is almost certainly Bahrain (upside down).

I have a lot of illustrations of Jordanian patches and none of these appear.

Thanks Eddie.
As all of 1-10 came together, if one is certain to be from Bahrein, probably the other nine are. I'll try to explore that angle if I can.
Thanks for your help.
