Saudi Arabia said Sunday that it was “following with deep concern the developments” in Iran, particulary the targeting of nuclear facilities by the US, calling for “restraint.”

In a statement, the Saudi Foreign Ministry reiterated its condemnation of the violation of Iran’s sovevereignty.

“The Kingdom underscroes the need to exert all possible efforts to exercise restraint, deescalate tensions, and avoid further escalation,” it said.

“The Kingdom also calls on the international community to intensify its efforts during this highly sensitive period to reach a political solution that would bring an end to the crisis and open a new chapter for achieving security and stability in the region,” the statement added.
