Islamabad reaffirms ‘unwavering support' for Riyadh amid Middle East tensions

Pakistan on Tuesday reaffirmed its unwavering support for Saudi Arabia’s security following recent Iranian attacks on energy facilities in the kingdom. In a statement, Foreign Office spokesperson Tahir Andrabi denounced the recent attacks on Saudi Arabia, terming them a "serious violation" of the kingdom's territorial integrity and a "dangerous escalation" in the ongoing war in the Middle East. The statement comes after overnight attacks on Saudi Arabia hit a petrochemical complex in a sprawling industrial area in the eastern city of Jubail, a witness who requested anonymity told AFP, hours after similar installations in Iran were struck.
