The United Arab Emirates has issued a stern condemnation regarding recent attacks by the Houthi group targeting civilian and economic infrastructure across the Saudi Arabian cities of Abha, Khamis Mushait, Jazan, and Najran. These hostile actions resulted in dozens of civilian casualties, including women and children. Furthermore, the UAE denounced the ongoing targeting of commercial vessels navigating the Red Sea, noting that such aggression directly threatens the safety of international maritime traffic.
In an official statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) characterized these assaults as a blatant breach of Saudi Arabia’s sovereignty and a significant danger to the nation’s security and stability. The Ministry reiterated the UAE’s steadfast solidarity with the Kingdom, pledging full support for any measures Saudi authorities deem necessary to protect their territory and ensure regional stability.
