The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates condemned the targeting of Riyadh by the Houthi militia with a ballistic missile that was successfully intercepted and destroyed by the Saudi air defense forces, and the militia's attempt to target civilians and civilian objects in the cities of Bishah, Ta'if, Farasan, and Yanbu in the sister Kingdom of Saudi Arabia; in a flagrant violation of Saudi sovereignty, a threat to its security and stability, the integrity of its territories, and a blatant breach of international law and the United Nations Charter.
The official spokesperson for the Ministry, Ambassador Fuad Al-Mujal, affirmed Jordan's absolute solidarity with the sister Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and its support for all steps it takes to protect its security, stability, assets, and the safety of its citizens and residents.
