Kuwait condemns Houthi missile launches at Saudi Arabia
The Cabinet also reviewed a GCC railway agreement signed in Bahrain, which it called a historic step toward executive action.
Kuwait's Cabinet strongly condemned continued Houthi attacks on several areas of Saudi Arabia during its meeting on Tuesday, the Kuwaiti Cabinet said in a statement.
The Cabinet said the attacks have included attempts to hit civilian sites and vital facilities, most recently the launch of two ballistic missiles toward Riyadh.
Prime Minister Sheikh Ahmad Abdullah Al Ahmad Al Sabah chaired the session, where ministers reaffirmed Kuwait's full solidarity with Saudi Arabia and its support for all steps to protect the kingdom's sovereignty, security and stability.
The Cabinet also said that protecting the citizens and residents of Saudi Arabia is part of the same goal.
It stressed that Saudi Arabia's security is an integral part of Kuwait's security and that of the other Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states.
Railway agreement reviewed
The Cabinet reviewed the General Agreement Linking GCC Countries to the Railway Project, which was signed in Bahrain on Sunday.
It described the accord as a historic milestone in joint Gulf action and a shift from the planning stage to executive commitment, in line with the directives of GCC leaders.
Regional background
The Houthi group is a Yemen-based movement that has carried out missile and drone attacks on Saudi Arabia in recent years, and the attacks have drawn repeated condemnation from Gulf states.
The GCC, founded in 1981, groups Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, and member states have discussed a regional railway link for many years.
