ISLAMABAD, Pakistan: Pakistan has strongly condemned the missile attack by Houthi militants at a Petroleum Distribution Terminal in Jeddah causing a fire in a fuel tank which was successfully extinguished without any causalities.
In a statement on Tuesday, the Foreign Office Spokesperson Zahid Hafeez Chaudhri said that Pakistan calls for an immediate cessation of such attacks that violate the territorial integrity and sovereignty of the brotherly Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and threaten the lives of innocent civilians.
“We reaffirm our full support and solidarity with the brotherly Kingdom of Saudi Arabia against any threats to its security and territorial integrity,” the Spokesperson said.
The Yemen’s Houthi militants fired the missile at the petroleum distribution facility in north Jeddah on Monday, which the Saudi Energy Ministry said, was the result of “a terrorist attack with a projectile”.
