Saudi Arabia Demands Accountability for Iranian Attacks on Oil Tankers

A Grave Violation of Security

Saudi Arabia condemned Iran in the strongest possible terms today. Hostile forces targeted the Saudi tanker Wedyan and the Qatari tanker Al Rekayyat. Both terrifying attacks occurred while the vessels transited the critical Strait of Hormuz. The Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a massive, aggressive official statement.

Threatening Global Energy

The Kingdom stated these unacceptable attacks constitute a direct assault on international navigation. They heavily threaten the absolute security of vital global energy supplies. Iran continuously launches these attacks in grave violation of established international law. They directly violate UN Security Council Resolution 2817 guaranteeing safe maritime passage.

Demanding Immediate Action

Saudi Arabia reiterated its demand for Iran to cease these hostilities immediately. Iran bears absolute, full responsibility for these attacks and their subsequent massive repercussions. The Kingdom refuses to tolerate threats to its national sovereignty and economic interests.
