a Saudi frigate on patrol west of Hodeidah port in Yemen

Morocco has strongly condemned the abject attack perpetrated last Sunday against a Saudi frigate on patrol west of Hodeidah port in Yemen, which claimed several lives, said Thursday a statement by the Foreign ministry.

While expressing its deep condolences and compassion to the Saudi government and people, Morocco reaffirms its full solidarity with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and its support to Saudi efforts aiming at restoring legality in Yemen, the ministry added.

 

Morocco calls for the immediate cessation of these attacks that violate maritime law and impact negatively on humanitarian aid intended for the brotherly Yemeni people, the source said, adding that these attacks undermine international efforts aiming at reaching a political solution to the Yemenite crisis, in accordance with the Security Council resolution  2216.
