Marking International Day of Charity, observed on September 5, the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief) highlighted Saudi Arabia's extensive humanitarian work. Since 1975, the Kingdom has provided over $141 billion in aid, funding 8,134 projects in 174 countries.

As a leading global institution, KSrelief has implemented 3,632 projects in 108 countries over the past decade, with a value exceeding $8.15 billion. These projects have provided vital assistance to millions of people in countries such as Yemen, Palestine, Syria, Sudan, and Somalia.

The center's recent efforts in the Gaza Strip include delivering over 7,500 tons of aid and 20 ambulances via air and sea bridges.

The "Sahem" electronic donation platform has also collected over SAR1.61 billion, reflecting public trust in the organization.

In recognition of its work, KSrelief has received several international awards, and the Kingdom successfully initiated the United Nations' designation of November 24 as World Conjoined Twins Day.

This commitment to humanitarianism aligns with Saudi Vision 2030 to foster a more equitable and inclusive future for all.

Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, and Jordan issued a joint statement on Wednesday condemning the attacks carried out by Iran-affiliated armed groups in Iraq against countries in the region and their facilities and infrastructure.

They said these assaults constitute a violation of international laws and conventions, and a flagrant breach of UN Security Council Resolution 2817 (2026), which clearly demands that Iran immediately and unconditionally cease any attacks or threats against neighboring states, including those carried out through proxy groups.

In the statement, the six countries strongly condemned what they dubbed Iranian aggression, whether carried out directly or through proxy armed groups, saying it violates their sovereignty and breaches international law, international humanitarian law, and the Charter of the United Nations.

They urged Iraq to immediately stop attacks from armed groups within its territory to maintain relations and prevent escalation.

The statement affirmed the six countries’ inherent right to self-defense and to take necessary measures to protect their sovereignty and security under the UN Charter.

The statement also condemned the destabilizing activities carried out by Iran-aligned sleeper cells and terrorist groups linked to Hezbollah. It praised the armed forces and security agencies for confronting these threats, protecting national security, and successfully uncovering and dismantling hostile networks.
