The UAE has strongly condemned the Houthi militia’s recent attempts to attack civilians in Saudi Arabia’s Khamis Mushait.

The explosive drones were successfully intercepted by coalition forces.

In a statement released by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation (MoFAIC), the UAE reiterated that these attacks by the Houthis reflect their blatant disregard for the international laws.

It has also renewed its full solidarity with Saudi Arabia and stressed that any threat facing the Kingdom is considered an attack on the UAE.
