The Lebanese foreign ministry has condemned the attempted attacks by Yemen’s Houthi militias on Saudi Arabia, stressing permanent support for the Kingdom.

The ministry “strongly condemned” Wednesday’s attempted terrorist attack on the Kingdom through a booby-trapped boat, and earlier, through a drone.

In a statement, it affirmed the Lebanese government’s “permanent support for the brotherly Kingdom of Saudi Arabia against all what affects the security, stability and the safety of its citizens.”

The Coalition to Restore Legitimacy in Yemen said Wednesday it had destroyed an explosive-laden boat used by the Iran-backed group in the south of the Red Sea.

The Coalition had earlier destroyed a drone which took off from Sanaa international airport.

Saudi Arabia welcomed on Wednesday the agreement announced by the United Nations Secretary-General's Special Envoy to Yemen, Hans Grundberg, between the Yemeni government and the Houthi group.
The agreement was reached on Tuesday between the legitimate Yemeni government and Iran-backed Houthi militias to de-escalate the situation with regard to the Yemeni banking sector and the national airlines, Yemenia.
The Saudi foreign Ministry stressed Riyadh’s unwavering support for Yemen, its government and people, expressing keenness on de-escalation.
In a statement on its X account on Wednesday, the Ministry said it looks forward to the Yemeni parties sitting for dialogue under the patronage of the UN envoy's office to discuss all economic and humanitarian issues in the hopes of paving the way for a comprehensive political solution for the Yemeni crisis.
