Kuwait: Houthi attempt to target Mecca constitutes a violation of the sanctity of Muslims' Qibla - Sarmad

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs expressed Kuwait’s strong condemnation and denunciation of the attempt to target the Holy Makkah using a drone launched by the Houthi militia. It affirmed that this cowardly and despicable act constitutes a violation of the sanctity of the Muslims’ Qibla, a disregard for its religious status, and an affront to the feelings of Muslims.

The Ministry reaffirmed Kuwait’s full solidarity with Saudi Arabia and its support for all measures taken to safeguard its sovereignty and security, protect the Two Holy Mosques, and preserve their sanctity. It commended the vigilance and efficiency of the Royal Saudi Air Defense Forces in thwarting this attempt, and emphasized that the security of the Kingdom is an integral part of the security of the State of Kuwait and the security of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states.
