Manama:The Kingdom of Bahrain has issued a strong condemnation against the continued missile and drone attacks by Houthi forces targeting Riyadh and southern Saudi Arabia. Among these attacks was an attempted strike on a Saudi Aramco administrative building, which Bahrain described as a violation of Saudi sovereignty and international law.
According to Bahrain News Agency, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Bahrain reiterated its full solidarity with Saudi Arabia. It expressed support for all measures taken by Saudi Arabia to protect its security, stability, and citizens, including its right to self-defense as outlined in Article 51 of the UN Charter. The Ministry emphasized that the security of Saudi Arabia is integral to that of Bahrain and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), and it commended Saudi air defenses for intercepting the attacks.
Furthermore, Bahrain has called on the United Nations Security Council to take decisive action to stop the Houthi attacks, hold those responsible accountable, and implement relevant resolutions, particularly 2216 and 2817. These actions are deemed necessary to protect civilians, vital facilities, and to safeguard regional security and stability.
