King Mohammed VI of Morocco has condemned the joint USA and Israeli forces air strike in Iran on Saturday, expressing his solidarity and support to their brotherly nations.
Through a telephone conversation with His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the United Arab Emirates; His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, King of the Kingdom of Bahrain; His Royal Highness Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Crown Prince and Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia; and His Highness Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, Emir of the State of Qatar,the King assured them that his country will engage in legitimate and appropriate measures to safeguard the security of the civilians.
He stressed that the security and stability of the Arab Gulf states are an integral part of the security and stability of the Kingdom of Morocco, and that any infringement upon their integrity constitutes a serious and unacceptable aggression and a direct threat to regional stability.
This comes after dozens of civilians were killed and scores injured early on Saturday when US and Israel forces launched air strikes on Iran.
