The Government of Maldives strongly condemns the hostile projectile attack aimed towards the Najran and Jazan regions of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, causing the loss of two innocent lives and injuries to several civilians.
These deliberate and systematic acts of terrorism targeting civilians and civilian objects, clearly violate international law and imperil the security and safety of civilians and travelers. The continuation of such attacks hinders the ongoing peace efforts being made by the concerned parties and the international community to resolve the conflicts in the region.
The Government of Maldives reaffirms its solidarity with the brotherly people and the Government of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and expresses its sincere condolences to the members of the bereaved families and those impacted by this cowardly attack. The Government of Maldives also reiterates its steadfast commitment to the fight against terrorism in all its forms and manifestations.
