Xinhua,March 26, 2018 Adjust font size:

KUWAIT CITY, March 26 (Xinhua) -- Kuwait firmly condemned Monday the missile attacks on Saudi Arabia by the Houthi militias in Yemen, the Kuwait News Agency (KUNA) reported.

An official source at the Foreign Ministry of Kuwait said that Kuwait followed with full condemnation the news about missile attacks on Saudi Arabia which terrorized innocent people.

The source reiterated Kuwait's total denunciation of these attacks which showed the Houthis' rejection to peace and the will of the international community to put an end to the conflict in Yemen.

The source urged the international community, especially the UN Security Council, to take immediate action to stop such attacks.

The source affirmed that these actions would not undermine the determination of the brotherly people in Saudi Arabia in maintaining its security and stability, reiterating Kuwait's solidarity with the kingdom and support to all the measures taken to retain its security and stability.

Multiple missiles were fired at various locations in Saudi on Sunday night. Three were fired towards Saudi capital Riyadh, two towards Jazan, one towards the city of Khamis Mushayt and one at Najran, Saudi state news channel reported.

One person was killed and two others wounded in a ballistic missile attack over the capital of Riyadh, Saudi Civil Defense said. Enditem
