Saudi Arabia has strongly condemned and denounced the targeting of two Adnoc tankers while transiting the Strait of Hormuz, describing the incident as an unacceptable recurrence of Iranian attacks targeting commercial vessels and tankers.

The ministry said the attacks constitute a grave violation of international laws and norms and a blatant challenge to UN Security Council Resolution 2817, which affirmed the need to respect the rights and freedom of navigation of commercial vessels through the Strait of Hormuz and condemned any measures or threats that could impede such navigation.

Saudi Arabia held Iran fully responsible for the consequences of continuing these attacks, calling on the country to immediately halt such violations and respect relevant international law.
