Riyadh, July 07 (QNA) – The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia strongly condemned Iran’s targeting of the Saudi tanker ‘Wedyan’ as it transited the Strait of Hormuz, as well as its attack on the Qatari tanker ‘Al Rekayyat’, stressing that these unacceptable attacks constitute an assault on the security and safety of international navigation and on the security of global energy supplies.
In a statement issued on Tuesday, the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs said Iran’s continued attacks amounted to a grave violation of international law, international norms, and UN Security Council Resolution 2,817, which guarantees freedom of navigation and the safe passage of maritime traffic.
The ministry called on Iran to immediately cease all actions that threaten regional security, international maritime navigation and global energy supplies, and held Iran fully responsible for the attacks and all resulting damage and consequences. (QNA)
