RIYADH: Saudi Arabia on Saturday strongly condemned attacks targeting key facilities in Kuwait, blaming Iran, its proxies and affiliated groups for the escalation, the Saudi Press Agency reported.
Kuwait condemned what it described as drone attacks by Iran and its proxies targeting vital infrastructure in the country on Thursday night, calling the strikes a violation of its sovereignty and airspace, its foreign ministry said.
In a statement, the Kingdom’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs denounced the strikes in the strongest terms, describing them as “heinous” and a clear violation of Kuwait’s sovereignty.
Saudi Arabia said the attacks represented a blatant breach of international law and the UN charter, warning that they pose a direct threat to regional security and stability.
The Kingdom reiterated its categorical rejection of such actions and called for an immediate halt to hostilities, urging all parties to adhere to relevant international laws and conventions.
It also stressed the need for Iran and its proxies to cease all hostile activities targeting Arab and Islamic countries, highlighting the importance of implementing UN Security Council Resolution 2817 of 2026.
Riyadh reaffirmed its full solidarity with Kuwait, both its government and people, and expressed support for all measures taken by the Gulf state to safeguard its sovereignty, security and stability.
