Emir of Kuwait Sheikh Nawaf al-Ahmad al-Jaber al-Sabah expressed on Saturday his gratitude and appreciation to Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz for Saudi Arabia’s efforts in resolving the Gulf dispute.

In a message to King Salman, he hailed the role played by Saudi Arabia, under his wise leadership, in helping reach a historic achievement that is finding a final solution to the dispute between the Kingdom, United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Egypt with Qatar.

Saudi Arabia’s acting on behalf of the UAE, Bahrain and Egypt reflects the Kingdom’s prestigious standing and pioneering role in supporting the security and stability of the region, he continued.

It also reflects its keenness on unity amid the pressing challenges in the world and region, he added.

Resolving the rift “will be an achievement that restores Gulf and Arab unity against challenges raging in the entire world,” said Sheikh Nawaf.

He also cited the efforts exerted by his brother, late Emir Sheikh Sabah al-Ahmad al-Jaber al-Sabah, in resolving the dispute.

Yemeni Prime Minister Dr. Ahmed Awad bin Mubarak held on Wednesday two meetings in Riyadh: the first, with the new commander of the Coalition to Support Legitimacy in Yemen, revolved around military affairs, while the second focused on humanitarian efforts and priorities with the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center.

According to official Saudi sources, the Yemeni premier met with Lt. Gen. Fahd Al-Salman, Commander of the Joint Forces, with whom he discussed the ongoing coordination and continued support from the coalition countries, led by Saudi Arabia, to achieve security and stability for the Yemeni people and support the legitimate government.

Separately, a meeting was held at the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center to review joint coordination in implementing programs and plans.

Dr. Abdullah Al-Rabeeah, Advisor to the Saudi Royal Court and General Supervisor of the center, emphasized the center's commitment to alleviating the suffering of the needy, displaced, and affected populations in Yemen, stressing that these efforts reflect Saudi Arabia's noble humanitarian mission, led by the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques and the Crown Prince.

Bin Mubarak was also briefed on the total humanitarian aid provided by Saudi Arabia from 1996 to 2024, which has been extended to 171 countries at a value of over $132 billion, with $27 billion specifically allocated to Yemen. In 2014, Saudi Arabia’s official development aid amounted to 1.9% of its GDP, far exceeding the UN's target of 0.7%.

The meeting also highlighted the center’s efforts, which include 3,068 projects across 102 countries, valued at over $7 billion. Of these, 976 humanitarian projects were designated for Yemen, valued at over $4 billion, covering various key sectors. This includes 479 projects for women and 478 for children.
