Saudi Arabia worried over Middle East escalations amid Houthi attacks

Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Minister said on Friday there was no need for any further escalation in the region, when asked about attacks by Yemen’s Houthi movement in the Red Sea.

Prince Faisal bin Farhan also told journalists in Oslo that he hopes a new resolution calling for a ceasefire in Gaza in the UN Security council will get more support, “especially by the US who had previously vetoed the resolution”.
