Saudi Arabia has strongly condemned the “repeated and malicious Iranian attacks against the brotherly State of Kuwait”.

“The Kingdom reiterates its categorical rejection of these assaults, which violate Kuwait’s sovereignty and constitute a clear breach of international law and the Charter of the United Nations,” the foreign ministry said.

It stressed that “such violations undermine international efforts that aim to restore security and stability in the region”.

Saudi Arabia also affirmed its solidarity with Kuwait, its government and people, and renewed “its full support for all measures taken by Kuwait to safeguard its sovereignty, security, and stability, and the well-being of its people”.
