Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan Criticizes Iran

Shiite News: Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan stated in a recent statement that Iran claims to defend the Muslim world while, at the same time, targeting Muslim countries such as Turkey and Saudi Arabia. He also alleged that Iran supports the Houthis in Yemen, the Popular Mobilization Forces (Hashd al-Shaabi) in Iraq, and Hezbollah in Lebanon.

The article further argues that Saudi Arabia, despite being home to the Kaaba, has remained largely silent over Israel’s military actions in Gaza. It claims that while Gaza was under attack and Palestinian children were being killed, Saudi authorities were hosting entertainment events, including performances by Salman Khan and concerts by Shakira.

The article also states that Iran has consistently stood against Israel and the United States, supported the Palestinian cause, backed Hezbollah and Hamas, and continued its opposition despite suffering significant losses.
