Pakistan reiterated its full support and solidarity with Saudi Arabia and demanded an immediate end to such attacks. Pakistan praised the successful deterrence of drone and missile attacks. The Arab League had thwarted another drone and ballistic missile attack by Houthi rebels yesterday.
The bomber struck shortly after noon in front of a police recruiting center in the northern city of Jeddah. Both the attacks were destroyed before they reached their destination. Yesterday, PML-N President Shahbaz Sharif strongly condemned the missile and drone attack on Saudi Arabia and termed the attack as an attack on the entire Ummah.
In his statement, Shahbaz Sharif said that the security, geographical integrity and sovereignty of the Holy Hijaz is dearer to every Muslim than his own life. An attack on Saudi Arabia is tantamount to an attack on the entire Ummah. He expressed full solidarity with the government and people of Saudi Arabia.
