RIYADH, Monday, June 23, 2025 (WNP): The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on Monday strongly condemned what it termed as an unjustifiable act of aggression by Iran against the State of Qatar, calling it a blatant violation of international law and the principles of good neighborliness.

In an official statement issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Saudi Arabia denounced the Iranian attack in the “strongest possible terms,” emphasizing that such actions were entirely unacceptable and could not be justified under any circumstances.

Reaffirming its steadfast solidarity with Qatar, the Kingdom pledged its full support and placed all its capabilities at Doha’s disposal to assist in any measures deemed necessary by the Qatari leadership in response to the aggression.

“The Kingdom stands firmly with the brotherly State of Qatar and supports all efforts to safeguard its sovereignty and regional stability,” the statement read.

The condemnation underscores the growing concerns in the Gulf region over rising tensions and reflects Saudi Arabia’s commitment to collective security and regional cooperation.
