The Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs has strongly condemned the recent targeting of vital facilities and infrastructure in Port Sudan and Kassala, warning that such acts pose a serious threat to regional stability as well as to Arab and African national security.

In a statement released on Sunday, the Kingdom called for an immediate halt to the ongoing war in Sudan, urging all parties involved to spare the country and its people from further suffering and destruction.

Reiterating its commitment to peace, Saudi Arabia emphasized that resolving the Sudanese crisis requires a Sudanese-led political solution that respects the country’s sovereignty, unity, and the role of its state institutions.

The ministry reaffirmed the Kingdom's firm rejection of attacks on civilian infrastructure and underscored the urgent need to protect civilians. 

It also called for the full implementation of the Jeddah Declaration on the Commitment to Protect Civilians in Sudan, which was signed on May 11, 2023.

Saudi Arabia remains a key diplomatic actor in efforts to stabilize Sudan and continues to advocate for a peaceful and inclusive political resolution to the conflict.
