Riyadh, January 24, 2022, SPA -- Secretary General of the Gulf Cooperation Council for Arab States (GCC) Dr. Nayef Falah Al-Hajraf condemned the terrorist Houthi militia launch of a ballistic missile towards Dhahran Al-Janub, Saudi Arabia, earlier today. Dr. Al-Hajraf stressed that these continuous terrorist attacks by the Houthi militia reflect its flagrant challenge to the international community and its underestimation of all international laws and norms, in addition to its rejection of all endeavors aimed at realizing peace in Yemen, calling on the international community to bear its responsibilities and take a decisive position against the Houthi militia to stop these recurrent terrorist acts that target vital and civilian facilities and objects. He also praised the high efficiency and alert of the Saudi air defense forces that managed to intercept and destroy the missile, which, as a result of its interception, caused the remnants to be scattered on the industrial zone in Dhahran AL-Janub and resulted in some material losses in some workshops and civil vehicles according to an initial report. The secretary general also renewed GCC countries’ solidarity with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia against whatever targets its security and the stability of its territories, stressing the need for the international community to take instant and decisive procedures and positions to stop these acts of aggression that target vital and civil facilities and the security of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. --SPA 14:04 LOCAL TIME 11:04 GMT 0013 www.spa.gov.sa/w1682290
