Al-Sudais: Repeated Houthi Targeting of Makkah, Madinah Exposes Militia's Criminal Intent

President of Religious Affairs at the Grand Mosque and the Prophet's Mosque Sheikh Dr. Abdulrahman Al-Sudais condemned the terrorist Houthi militia's continued targeting of Makkah and Madinah, calling it a blatant assault on the sanctity of the two holy cities and a violation of Islamic Sharia, which forbids aggression and mandates the protection of sacred sites.

 He said the repeated attacks reveal the militia's criminal approach, its malicious intentions toward Muslims and their holy sites, and its disregard for the status of the Two Holy Mosques. He added that targeting holy sites, civilians, and facilities is a crime forbidden by Islamic law and condemned by humanity, as well as a violation of international norms.

 Al-Sudais said the attacks will not undermine the Kingdom's security and stability, but will only strengthen the resolve of its leadership and people to protect the Two Holy Mosques and their visitors.

 He commended the leadership's efforts to protect the Two Holy Mosques and Islam's holy sites, stressing that their security is "a red line that must not be breached."
