The Secretariat of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation condemned the attack by the Iranian-backed Houthi militia, which targeted the Bahraini duty force participating in Operations Restoring Hope, stationed on the southern border of Saudi Arabia.

The attack by the Iranian-backed terrorist Houthi militia resulted in the martyrdom of an officer and an individual and the injury of others.

The Secretary-General of the Organization, Hussein Ibrahim Taha, expressed his sincere condolences to the families of the two martyrs and to the government and people of Bahrain, wishing recovery for the injured.

He stressed that such provocative actions are not consistent with the positive efforts made to end the crisis in Yemen.
