Kuwait's Ministry of Foreign Affairs welcomed the UNSC’s statement, in which it unanimously condemned the attack by the terrorist Houthi militia on civilian facilities in the UAE, considering it a dangerous escalation that would affect the region’s peace and security.

The statement of the Council reaffirms the seriousness of the Houthi militias' behaviour, threatening peace and security in the region, the Ministry said in a press release carried by Kuwait News Agency (KUNA).

It also shows the importance the Council attaches to the Yemeni cause, the Ministry noted, urging the Council to double effort to force the Houthi militias into responding positively to the ceasefire calls and the UN envoy's efforts to resume political consultations among the Yemeni parties.
