Cairo [Egypt], May 11 (ANI/WAM): Arab League Secretary-General Ahmed Aboul Gheit strongly condemned on Sunday the blatant attacks targeting the State of Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates and the territorial waters of the State of Qatar, describing them as a flagrant violation of international law.
In a statement, Aboul Gheit affirmed full solidarity with the Kingdom of Bahrain in confronting sabotage plots targeting its security and stability, following the announcement by Bahraini authorities of the arrest of 41 individuals linked to foreign entities who allegedly attempted to undermine the kingdom's security.
