Published in Saudi Press Agency on 02 - 07 - 2019

Supplementing a statement issued by the Joint Forces Command of the coalition on dawn of Tuesday (July 02, 2019), on a terrorist attack at Abha International Airport carried out by the Iranian-backed terrorist Houthi militia, the spokesman of the coalition forces, "Coalition for the Support of Legitimacy in Yemen," Colonel Turki al-Maliki said that the terrorist attack led to the injury of 9 civilians, 8 of them Saudis and one an Indian national, all injuries are initially stable and were all transferred to specialized hospitals.
Al-Maliki added that the Houthi terrorist militia continues its immoral practices by targeting civilians and civilian objects protected under international humanitarian law and its customary rules, by declaring through their media their full responsibility for this terrorist act using a drone, which constitutes a clear admission and full responsibility for targeting civilian assets and civilians who are particularly protected under international humanitarian law, which could lead to a war crime by systematically targeting civilians and civilian assets.
Al-Maliki said that the continuation of such acts of terrorism and high quality capabilities proves the Iranian regime's involvement in supporting the Houthi terrorist militia and the continued violation of relevant Security Council resolutions, including resolution 2216 and resolution 2231.
He stressed that in the face of these acts of terrorism and the immoral violations by the Houthi terrorist militia, the command of the coalition forces continues to carry out strict measures to deter these terrorist militias in order to protect the civilian and civilian assets. The terrorist elements responsible for the planning and execution of this terrorist attack will be held accountable in accordance with international humanitarian law and its customary rules.
