Riyadh, September 08 (QNA) - Official Spokesperson of the Coalition to Restore Legitimacy in Yemen Major General Turki Al Malki stated that the escalation by the Houthi group and its attempts to target the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, its national assets, its citizens, and residents on its territory is a dangerous escalation that confirms the hostile and irresponsible approach.
The Major General explained that the Houthi group's senseless attacks, the latest of which targeted civilian and economic sites in the cities of Abha, Khamis Mushait, Jazan, and Najran, resulting in injuries to 73 civilians including women and children, constitute a blatant violation of the Kingdom's sovereignty and a direct threat to the security and safety of its citizens and residents.
These unjustified attacks committed by the Houthi group deliberately harm the Kingdom's national resources, facilities, and civilian sites.
The Major General affirmed that the Joint Forces Command of the Coalition will take all necessary operational measures to deter the Houthi group and resolutely confront its hostile approach in defense of the Kingdom's sovereignty, the preservation of its national assets and the safety of its citizens and residents. It will also take all necessary measures and actions to respond to the sources of the threat and neutralize them. (QNA)
