RIYADH, June 13 (APP):The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has strongly condemned Israel’s large-scale military strikes on Iran, describing the attacks as a blatant violation of Iranian sovereignty and a serious breach of international laws and norms.
In an official statement issued by the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Friday, the Kingdom denounced it as “heinous Israeli aggressions,” expressing deep concern over the escalating violence and its implications for regional and global stability.
“Such aggression undermines the sovereignty and security of a brotherly nation and constitutes a clear breach of international laws and conventions,” the statement said.
Riyadh called on the international community, particularly the United Nations Security Council, to fulfill its responsibilities by taking immediate steps to halt the hostilities and prevent further escalation.
“The Kingdom affirms that the Security Council and the global community bear a grave responsibility to act swiftly to stop this dangerous aggression,” the foreign ministry added.
