Riyadh: Secretary General of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), Jasem Mohamed Albudaiwi condemned in the strongest and harshest terms the blatant terrorist targeting carried out by Iran against the SAMREF refinery, Yanbu Port, and a refinery south of Riyadh in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

According to Qatar News Agency, Albudaiwi stressed that this targeting constitutes a terrorist act and a blatant criminal aggression that embodies the hostile behaviour and nature of the Iranian regime, reflecting its total disregard for the security and stability of the region and the world.
