Riyadh: Saudi Arabia has extended its “full support” to the US, Britain and France strikes on military targets in Syria.
The official Saudi Press Agency (SPA) citing an official source said the military strikes came as a response to the Syrian regime’s use of chemical weapons against innocent civilians, including women and children.
“The use of such internationally prohibited weapons is a continuation of the horrid crimes the regime has been committing for years against the Syrian people,” it said, adding that the Saudi Foreign Affairs Ministry “expressed the Kingdom’s full support of US, Britain and France’s military operations in Syria”.
“The Syrian government (led by President Bashar Al Assad) bears responsibility for these military operations in light of the international community’s failure to take strict measures against the regime.”
