Doha, Qatar: The State of Qatar has strongly condemned the attacks intended to target petroleum facilities in the Eastern Province and Riyadh region of the brotherly Kingdom of Saudi Arabia by inbound drones from Iraqi territory.

It termed them a flagrant violation of Saudi Arabia's sovereignty and a threat to its security and stability, as well as a brazen breach of international law, the United Nations Charter, and good unneighborly relations.

In a statement on Monday, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs emphasized that the State of Qatar wholly stands by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and backs it in all lawful measures it takes to safeguard its sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.
