\u201cThe Islamic Republic of Mauritania expresses its strong condemnation of the Houthi militias\u2019 attempt to target the Medina region with a ballistic missile, affirming its full solidarity with the sisterly Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and its support for all measures it takes to protect its security and the integrity of its territory.<\/p>\n
It should be noted that targeting Medina\u2014given its sanctity and exalted status in the hearts of Muslims, its hosting of the Mosque of the Messenger of Allah \ufdfa, and its welcoming of the guests of the Most Merciful and visitors to the Prophet\u2019s Mosque\u2014constitutes an unacceptable violation of the sanctity of Islamic holy sites and a threat to the security and peace of mind of Muslims.<\/p>\n
Mauritania reaffirms its unwavering position calling for the preservation of holy sites, respect for the sovereignty of states, and the avoidance of anything that could undermine security and stability in the region.<\/p>\n
