OIC denounces Houthi targeting of Saudi oil tankers
Secretary General of the Organization of Islamic
Cooperation (OIC) Youssef bin Ahmed on Wednesday urged the international
community to work for providing protection necessary for international
navigation in the Red Sea and confronting the Houthi piracy.
The remark was made in his speech at the inaugural
session at the level of (OIC) delegates in Jeddah to discuss an aggression by
the Houthi group against two Saudi oil tankers at Bab el Mandab Strait last
month.
The Houthi group did not hesitate also to target the
most sacred spot on earth which is Makka al Mukaramah, he pointed out.
He denounced the Houthi militias' targeting of
international navigation which is harming the interests of all countries around
the globe.
He confirmed the
organization's support for Saudi Arabia in its fight against terrorism and all
its measures to guarantee the security and stability of its territories.
