Arab League Secretary-General Denounces UAV Attack on Makkah

Arab league: Arab League Secretary-General Nabil Fahmy condemned the attempted UAV attack on Makkah, following the Kingdom's interception and destruction of the hostile aircraft south of the city before it could breach the holy site's restricted airspace.

According to Saudi Press Agency, Fahmy emphasized that compromising the sanctity of Islamic holy sites endangers the safety of citizens, residents, and pilgrims and constitutes a flagrant provocation to Muslims worldwide.

He stated the attack reflects a continued and dangerous escalation by the Houthi militia targeting Saudi civilian infrastructure, exacerbating regional tensions and undermining stability. Fahmy stressed the urgent need to halt this escalation, respect international law and the UN Charter, and adhere to UN Security Council Resolution 2216 (2015), which calls for an end to threats against neighboring states.

Fahmy affirmed that the Kingdom's security is an essential pillar of regional stability and reiterated the Arab League's complete solidarity with Saudi Arabia and full support for all measures taken to defend its territory, citizens, and holy sites. He also commended the vigilance and efficiency of the Royal Saudi Air Defense Forces in thwarting the attack.
