The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has issued an official statement expressing its firm rejection and strongest condemnation of the Iranian attack targeting the United States Embassy building in Riyadh, describing the act as a blatant and unjustified assault that violates established international norms.

In its statement, the Kingdom reassured Saudi citizens and expatriate residents that their safety and security remain an absolute priority, emphasizing that it will not tolerate any threat to its sovereignty, territorial integrity, or national stability.

Saudi Arabia stressed that the repetition of such attacks constitutes a clear breach of international law, including the 1949 Geneva Conventions and the 1961 Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, both of which guarantee full protection and immunity for diplomatic premises and their personnel, even during times of armed conflict.

The Kingdom underlined that targeting diplomatic missions is a serious violation that undermines the foundations of interstate relations and jeopardizes regional and international security at a time when restraint and responsible political conduct are critically needed.

Riyadh further highlighted that the recurrence of this Iranian conduct comes despite the Iranian authorities being fully aware of Saudi Arabia’s declared position that it will not allow its airspace or territory to be used to launch attacks against Iran, demonstrating the Kingdom’s commitment to preventing escalation and preserving regional stability.

The statement warned that continued hostile actions would push the region toward further dangerous escalation, carrying significant consequences for overall security.

Saudi Arabia reiterated its sovereign and lawful right to take all necessary measures to safeguard its national security, protect its territory, citizens, residents, and vital interests, including the option to respond to aggression in accordance with international law.

The statement concluded with a clear message of reassurance to citizens and residents across the Kingdom, affirming that relevant authorities are closely monitoring developments and that the security of Saudi Arabia remains a non-negotiable priority, with the state fully prepared to address any challenges with firmness and responsibility.
