Riyadh, Mar 19 (V7N) – Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Minister, Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud, has issued a strong warning that attacks on Saudi Arabia and neighboring Gulf countries will no longer be tolerated, cautioning that joint military action could be taken if necessary.

Speaking at a press conference following a meeting of Arab foreign ministers in Riyadh, he accused Iran of carrying out “deliberately planned” attacks, despite denials from Iranian diplomats. “The precision of the strikes indicates they were carefully planned and executed,” he said.

The Saudi foreign minister urged Tehran to immediately reconsider its regional strategy, warning, “Our patience has limits, but it is not infinite.” He added that it would be “unwise” to disclose when or how Saudi Arabia might respond.

The remarks come after reported attacks on energy facilities in the Gulf region, including the Ras Laffan gas facility in Qatar and the Habshan gas facility in the United Arab Emirates. Qatar strongly condemned the incident.

Earlier, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) had warned that energy infrastructure in Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE could be targeted. On Wednesday, Saudi Arabia said it intercepted four ballistic missiles aimed at Riyadh, while the UAE reported intercepting multiple missiles and drones.

Prince Faisal also cautioned that even if the conflict subsides, rebuilding relations with Iran would take significant time due to a breakdown of trust. “If such attacks continue, restoring mutual confidence may become almost impossible,” he said.
