Türkiye and the Yemeni Cabinet strongly condemned the drone attacks launched from Iraqi territory targeting the East-West oil pipeline in Riyadh and Madinah regions of Saudi Arabia, the Saudi Press Agency reported on Saturday. In a statement, the Turkish ministry of foreign affairs affirmed Türkiye's support for Saudi Arabia's sovereignty and territorial integrity, commending the Kingdom's restraint and its efforts to avoid escalating tensions in the region. The ministry renewed its call for an immediate end to such attacks, which threaten regional security and stability, and urged all parties to refrain from any steps that could further escalate tensions. The Yemeni Cabinet reiterated the government's strong condemnation of the renewed Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia, affirming Yemen's full solidarity with the Kingdom and its legitimate right to safeguard its security, citizens, and national resources. During a meeting held Sunday in Aden and chaired by Prime Minister Dr. Shaya Al-Zindani, the cabinet stressed that the use of Yemeni territory as a platform for attacks against Saudi Arabia constitutes an assault on the interests of the Yemeni people before posing a threat to neighboring countries and reflects the nature of the foreign agenda under which the Houthi militia operates. The Yemeni Cabinet also expressed the government's appreciation for Saudi Arabia's steadfast positions and for the political, economic, military, and humanitarian support the Kingdom provides to Yemen and its legitimate leadership.
