Saudi Crown Prince and Prime Minister Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud met Egyptian President Abdel Fattah Al Sisi in Jeddah yesterday, the Saudi Press Agency (SPA) reported.
The two leaders discussed regional developments, particularly the repercussions of the ongoing military escalation in the Middle East, its impact on regional and global security and stability, and the co-ordination of efforts in response, SPA said.
They also emphasised that the “repeated Iranian attacks on the Gulf Co-operation Council countries and the targeting of their vital and civilian infrastructure constitute a dangerous escalation that threatens the region’s security and stability,” it added.
Al Sisi reiterated Egypt’s condemnation of Iranian attacks on Saudi Arabia and other countries in the region, as well as its “support and solidarity with the Kingdom against any threat to its sovereignty and security,” according to the agency.
Al Sisi is currently on a regional tour aimed at discussing developments in the conflict and reaffirming Egypt’s solidarity with Gulf states.
