Restoring state authority key to Yemen security and Red Sea shipping, says PM Al-Zandani

In a meeting chaired by Crown Prince and Prime Minister Mohammed bin Salman, the Saudi Council of Ministers reaffirmed its steadfast support for Yemen's Presidential Leadership Council, legitimate government, and people. The ministers vowed to assist in ending the Houthi militia's coup and restoring Yemen's state and institutions.

The ministers noted that the Houthi militia had chosen military escalation over peace, worsening Yemen's humanitarian and economic crises and continuing to endanger regional security and maritime traffic in the southern Red Sea and the Bab Al-Mandab Strait. Following the session, Minister of Media Salman Al-Dossary informed the Saudi Press Agency that the Cabinet had praised the outcomes of the strategic-political and defense committee's emergency meeting, which had reaffirmed solidarity among the three countries and their unified stance against criminal attacks targeting the Kingdom.
