Amman, July 30 (Petra)-- Yemen’s Ministry of Foreign and Expatriates Affairs on Thursday condemned the Iranian missile attack targeting Jordan, expressing its strong rejection of what it described as a violation of Jordan’s sovereignty and a direct threat to its security and stability.

In a statement, the ministry affirmed Yemen’s full solidarity with Jordan and its support for the measures taken by the Kingdom to protect its security, sovereignty and the safety of its citizens. It also praised the readiness and capabilities of the Jordanian Armed Forces in responding to the attack.

The ministry said the continued escalation and attacks against neighboring countries, along with the use of force to threaten regional security, require a firmer international position to address such actions and help preserve regional and international peace and security.
