Addressing the men of the armed forces, the King said, “You are the shield for this nation after Allah. Undoubtedly, you know what the region is passing through at the current stage, as the enemies of the Ummah are lying in wait for your nation. They have no other goal but to disturb the security of our nation and its unity, which were achieved by the struggle of the late King Abdul Aziz and your grandfathers (May Allah bestow His mercy on them).” “Seditions are surrounding us from all directions and there is no deterrent against them except by relying on Allah and confronting whoever thinks of disturbing the security, unity and sovereignty of our country. Therefore, we ought to measure up to the responsibility on our shoulders. May Allah bless you and grant you victory,” King Abdullah said. – SPA
