Amman, Sept. 16 (Petra) -- Jordan on Wednesday condemned an attempt by the Houthi militia to target Makkah with a drone, calling it a blatant violation of the sovereignty of Saudi Arabia, a threat to its security, stability, and territorial integrity, and a flagrant breach of international law.

In a statement, Ministry of Foreign and Expatriate Affairs spokesperson Fuad Majali described the attack as an unacceptable act that shows disregard for Makkah's status and sanctity and offends the sentiments of Muslims.

Majali affirmed Jordan's absolute solidarity with Saudi Arabia and its support for all measures the Kingdom takes to protect its security, stability, and the safety of its citizens and residents.
