Saudi Deputy Defense Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman stressed on Tuesday that the Kingdom and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) are keen on Yemen joining the organization so that its people can enjoy security, stability and development like all other people of the Gulf.

In a series of tweets, he stated that the Iran-backed Houthi militias in Yemen have chosen terrorism and destruction and they have sacrificed the Yemeni people to serve Iran's agenda.

"We assure the Yemeni people that they are a part of us and we a part of them and that we will always stand by them," he stressed.

The Houthis promote false promises to deceive the Yemeni people and recruit them in the war that have exhausted them, he went on to say.

It is time for Yemenis to shun those false promises and safeguard the free people from the terrorist Houthi scourge, he added.

Saudi Arabia actively marks World Children's Day, observed on November 20 every year, through a range of projects and initiatives carried out by the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief), which is dedicated to supporting children and promoting their well-being worldwide.

Since its establishment, KSrelief has implemented 3,117 projects across 105 countries, totaling over $7.1 billion. Among these, 965 projects were valued at over $924 million, specifically focusing on enhancing the living conditions of children and their families, alleviating their suffering and ensuring access to education in safe and healthy environments.

One significant project by the center is the rehabilitation and reintegration of children recruited and affected by the armed conflict in Yemen, which aims to support child soldiers in their journey back to society.

The project has positively impacted 530 children and 60,560 family members. It entails facilitating the children's integration into their communities, enrolling them in schools, and offering vital psychological and social support through targeted training courses, helping them to lead normal, fulfilling lives.
KSrelief is a key supporter of the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), significantly contributing to the delivery of health services and nutrition programs for newborns and their mothers. The center also plays a crucial role in supporting educational initiatives and ensuring the continuity of education in crisis and disaster-affected areas.
