The first Saudi relief plane left on Saturday from King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, for Benina International Airport, in Benghazi, carrying 90 tons of food and shelter material to be distributed to those affected by the devastating floods in Libya.

The aid came in implementation of the directives of Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud and Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Crown Prince and Prime Minister.

A Riyadh-based King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief) team that manages the distribution of relief aid in coordination with the Libyan Red Crescent is set to supervise the delivery of the items dispatched.

The aid is testimony to the noble humanitarian role played by the Kingdom’s leadership, which always stands by friendly countries in times of crises and hardships.

Saudi Minister of Defense Prince Khalid bin Salman bin Abdulaziz received on Monday a telephone call from US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth.

The officials reviewed Saudi-US relations and prospects for defense cooperation.

They also discussed regional developments and ongoing efforts to address them, as well as the shared vision of both countries in supporting regional and international security and stability. They also addressed issues of mutual interest.

Chief Pentagon Spokesman Sean Parnell said Prince Khalid and Hegseth exchanged views “on the regional security situation, including progress on US operations to degrade Houthi capabilities and uphold freedom of navigation in the Red Sea.”

“The leaders discussed opportunities for expanding US-Saudi partnership on defense matters and agreed to remain in close touch,” he added.
