Secretary-General of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Dr Yousef A. Al-Othaimeen has expressed strong condemnation to the ballistic missile attacks on the Eastern Province and the cities of Najran and Jazan in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

The ballistic attacks were thwarted by forces of the coalition to support legitimacy in Yemen and resulted in two children suffering injuries and property being damaged, according to a statement from OIC received in Jakarta, Monday.

The OIC secretary-general also denounced the continued escalation of attacks by the terrorist Houthi militia that targeted civilians and civilian objects in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia with explosive-laden drones. He lauded the capabilities and efficiency of the Saudi Air Defense Force that managed to intercept and destroy three explosive-laden drones before they reached their targets.

Al-Othaimeen affirmed OIC's support for all measures taken by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to protect its land, security, and stability.

The secretary-general stressed that the OIC condemns terrorist acts committed by the Houthi militia and those supporting them and providing them money and weapons, considering that these acts are "war crimes." (Antaranews)
