Kuwait, March 19, 2021, SPA -- The State of Kuwait expressed its strong condemnation and denunciation of the Iran-backed Houthi terrorist militias attack by drones on an oil refinery in Riyadh. The Kuwaiti Foreign Ministry reaffirmed, in a statement issued today, that repeating these terrorist attacks, its escalating tempo and targeting civilian and vital areas do not only represent direct threat to the security of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the stability of the region, but direct threat to the energy supplies and the world economy, and direct challenge to the humanitarian and international laws. The Kuwaiti Ministry of Foreign Affairs demanded a wide international denunciation of such terrorist acts and work towards ending them, concluding its statement with affirming the stand of Kuwait with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and supporting it in the measures it takes to maintain its security, stability and sovereignty. --SPA 22:31 LOCAL TIME 19:31 GMT 0021 www.spa.gov.sa/w1527435
