Kuwait: Houthi Militia Attacks on King Khalid Airport a Blatant Violation of Saudi Sovereignty - Sarmad

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs expressed Kuwait’s strong condemnation and outrage at the blatant attacks launched by the Houthi militia on King Khalid International Airport in Saudi Arabia, which targeted airport facilities and a Saudi Arabian Airlines aircraft, resulting in the martyrdom of several Saudi citizens, injuries to residents of various nationalities, and material damage, in a flagrant violation of the Kingdom’s sovereignty and a brazen breach of international law and international humanitarian law.

The Ministry emphasized Kuwait’s unequivocal rejection of these cowardly attacks and their recurrence, given that they pose a direct threat to regional security, the safety of civilians and civilian objects, and air navigation, while reiterating the urgent need for an immediate halt to such hostile acts.

Reaffirming Kuwait’s absolute solidarity with Saudi Arabia and its support for all measures undertaken to safeguard its sovereignty, security, and the protection of its citizens and residents on its territory, the Ministry stressed that the security of the Kingdom is an integral part of the security of the State of Kuwait and the Gulf Cooperation Council countries.

The Ministry also conveyed Kuwait’s sincere condolences and heartfelt sympathies to Saudi Arabia, its leadership, government, and people, as well as to the families of the martyrs, and extended wishes for the prompt recovery of the injured.
