Pakistan has strongly condemned the “reprehensible” drone attacks on the East-West oil pipeline in Riyadh and Madina regions of Saudi Arabia, causing damage to the pipeline and injuries to civilians.
“These attacks and targeting of civilian infrastructure are a flagrant violation of the international law as well as sovereignty and territorial integrity of the brotherly Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and pose a serious threat to regional peace, security and stability,” the Foreign Office said in a statement on Saturday.
Saudi Arabia shut down its East-West pipeline after the vital oil conduit came under aerial attack in the widening Middle East war, threatening to send energy prices even higher.
