The Saudi government discussed on Tuesday the current regional developments and their impact on regional and international security and stability.

Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Crown Prince and Prime Minister, chaired the cabinet meeting that was held via videoconference.

The cabinet stressed that the Kingdom will take “all necessary measures to ensure its security and protect its citizens and residents.”

The cabinet was briefed on the contacts and consultations held in recent days over the regional developments and their serious implications. It expressed its gratitude to the positions of the leaders of “brotherly and friendly countries condemning the reprehensible Iranian attacks that hit Saudi Arabia, the Gulf Cooperation Council countries, and Jordan.”

The cabinet reiterated Saudi Arabia’s full solidarity with the brotherly countries who were attacked by Iran, stressing the Kingdom’s readiness “to mobilize all capabilities to support these countries in any measures they take in response to these attacks that undermine regional security and stability.”

It reviewed the hospitality and facilities being provided to citizens of GCC countries stranded at the Kingdom’s airports to ensure their comfort in their second home until conditions allow their safe return to their countries.

It hoped that the results of the recent emergency meeting of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation would boost mechanisms for coordination among member states and support efforts backing the rights of the brotherly Palestinian people and their just cause.

The cabinet highlighted new Saudi economic support to Yemen’s budget, saying it was a continuation of the Kingdom’s backing for the Yemeni people, reinforcing the foundations of stability and development and reflecting the depth of the historic fraternal ties between the two countries.

The cabinet praised the significant progress achieved under the ambitious plan to increase gas production, marked by the start of output from the first phase of the Jafurah Gas Field and the launch of operations at the Tanajib Gas Plant, in addition to the continued development of several other gas projects that will contribute to achieving the Kingdom’s economic growth targets.
