Great reaction from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to the attack on the airport in Riyadh!

While the Ministry of Foreign Affairs reacted to the attack carried out by the Houthis at King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, which killed 12 people and injured 309 people, our support for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Saudi Arabia was reiterated.

The statement made by the Ministry was as follows:

“We condemn in the strongest terms the King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, being targeted once again by the Houthis.

May God have mercy on those who lost their lives in the attack and wish a speedy recovery to the injured; We offer our condolences to the people of Saudi Arabia.

These attacks, which deliberately target civilian infrastructure and innocent civilians, clearly violate international law and the principles of international humanitarian law.

We emphasize that actions that pose a threat to regional security and stability and harm the joint efforts of the international community to establish peace must be stopped immediately.

As Türkiye, we reiterate our support for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Saudi Arabia.”
