Saudi Arabia announces its solidarity with Egypt following the attack on Damietta Port
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has strongly condemned the attack on the Egyptian port of Damietta, which was carried out using a drone that targeted two ships inside the port. This statement came within the framework of continuous monitoring of security events in the region and their impact on maritime navigation.
The Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed in an official statement the Kingdom's full support for the Arab Republic of Egypt under these circumstances. It also emphasized its complete support for all measures and steps taken by the Egyptian authorities to protect their national security, preserve their national sovereignty, and maintain the stability of their territory.
Damietta Port is considered one of the most vital ports in Egypt, as it plays a pivotal role in international trade and the transport of goods across the Mediterranean Sea. This incident comes at a time of growing international concern regarding the security of waterways in the region, which has prompted many countries to express their concern and support for Egypt's stability.
The Saudi position has been widely welcomed, as it reflects the depth of the strategic relations between the two countries. The Egyptian authorities continue to conduct the necessary investigations into the incident to ensure the safety of maritime navigation and prevent the recurrence of such attacks in the future.
