Iran offers Saudi-Yemen dialogue as fighting, Houthi attacks escalate
The Saudi-backed government in Yemen passed a draft law designating the Iran-backed Houthis as a terror group, as the US considers further action against the group over its attacks against Saudi Arabia.
Riyadh Emir Prince Faisal bin Bandar paid a visit to individuals injured in Houthi attacks at King Khalid International Airport on Monday. The Prince personally inspected the patients as they received medical care in various hospitals throughout the capital city. During these visits, Prince Faisal delivered messages of solidarity from King Salman and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, expressing their hopes for a swift recovery.
He emphasized the directives issued by the leadership to offer comprehensive medical care to all those affected by the attacks.
Prince Faisal was informed about the patients' current health status and the treatments they were undergoing. He directed healthcare professionals to closely monitor their progress and guarantee the availability of all essential medical services and support until the patients had fully recovered. In a press release, the Prince lauded the Saudi leadership's commitment to maintaining the Kingdom's security and stability.
He also lauded the unity and solidarity of the Saudi people and the Kingdom's armed forces in addressing threats to national security. Prince Faisal concluded his remarks by praying for continued security, prosperity, and stability for Saudi Arabia. This visit came after a series of Houthi strikes on King Khalid International Airport, including a deadly assault on Saturday that resulted in 12 deaths and 309 injuries, and another attack on Sunday that claimed a Pakistani resident's life and injured 11 others, as reported by the General Authority of Civil Aviation (GACA).
