Jordan condemns Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia

AMMAN — The Foreign Ministry on Sunday condemned the continuous attacks by the Houthi militia against Saudi Arabia targeting civilian areas, the latest of which was the launch of a ballistic missile, several armed drones and cruise missiles towards a number of Saudi cities. 

The attacks, which took place on Saturday evening and early on Sunday, were intercepted and destroyed by Saudi air defences.

He stressed the Kingdom's firm position in rejecting all forms of violence and terrorism, confirming Jordan’s unwavering support towards Saudi Arabia against any threats to the country and its people’s security.
