RIYADH: Saudi Arabia said that it views the truce announced in Yemen positively and called on “all Yemenis” to stand against Iranian interference in the country. “The truce announced in Yemen is perceived positively by the Kingdom, as this is what it has always sought, and hopes it will be implemented effectively,” Saudi Arabia’s Deputy Defense Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman wrote on Twitter. Prince Khalid also accused Iran of exploiting the situation in Yemen and “evading responsibility for their terrorist acts.” The Houthis claimed responsibility for attacks on September 14 against two key Saudi oil installations in Abqaiq and Khurais. Riyadh and Washington, however, blamed Iran for the attacks, a charge denied by Tehran.
