“The Secretary General strongly condemns the recent escalation of the conflict in Yemen”, United Nations spokesman Stephane Dujarric said in a statement on Saturday.

The United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres condemned the attacks and called on all parties to exercise restraint. He also urged the warring parties to negotiate a settlement to end the conflict.

On Friday, Egypt strongly condemned the latest terrorist attacks launched by the Yemeni Houthi rebels on civilian targets and vital oil facilities in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

The Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs stressed an “absolute rejection of such heinous terrorist attacks and any cowardly act that undermines the security and stability in Saudi Arabia”.

“Egypt reiterates its full support of all measures taken by the Saudi government to preserve the Kingdom’s security, stability and the safety of its citizens”, the statement added.

Egypt warned of the threat posed by the Houthi attacks to the regional security and energy supplies. Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, the United Kingdom and the United States all voiced their condemnations of the recent attacks by the Houthis.
