Pakistan condemns attacks on Saudi Arabia, expresses solidarity

The Government of Pakistan expresses its deep concern and unequivocal condemnation of the missile and drone attacks carried out by the Islamic Republic of Iran last night against energy facilities in the eastern region of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

A statement issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said Pakistan mourns the loss of life resulting from these attacks and strongly deplores the damage inflicted on vital infrastructure.

The statement further said the Government of Pakistan conveys its sincere condolences to the families of the victims and firmly stands in solidarity with the Government and people of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia during this difficult time.

The Government of Pakistan considers these attacks a serious violation of Saudi Arabia's sovereignty and territorial integrity and a dangerous escalation that undermines regional peace and stability.

Pakistan reaffirms its unwavering support for the Kingdom's security.

Earlier, the military’s top brass on Tuesday strongly condemned the latest attacks on Saudi Arabia’s petrochemical and industrial facilities, terming them an unnecessary escalation that risks undermining ongoing diplomatic efforts to resolve the Mideast conflict peacefully, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said in a statement.
