RABAT, March 27 (Xinhua) -- The Moroccan King Mohammed VI condemned on Tuesday the Houthi missile strikes against Saudi Arabia, expressing his country's absolute solidarity with the kingdom.

The king said in a message to the Saudi king Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud that the attack was a "despicable criminal aggression."

Saudi authorities announced that they have intercepted the missiles, adding that one Egyptian national was killed and two other Egyptians suffered wounds when a fragment of a missile over the Saudi capital fell on a residential neighborhood. Enditem
