In an address at a virtual Arab League session today, he said that the Kingdom is making every effort to preserve the sovereignty of Yemen and achieve security and stability in it.

He appealed to the international community to pay more attention to stopping the practices of the Iranian-backed Houthi militias, and their repeated attacks by missiles and drones that target populated civilian areas, airports, facilities and civilian installations in the Kingdom.

Farhan stressed that the Iranian regime threatens the Arab region by supporting armed militias, stressing that the militias are wreaking havoc and chaos in many Arab countries.
