Egypt condemned on Friday Yemen's Houthi attack by two unmanned bomb-laden boats on Saudi Arabian oil facilities.

In a statement, Egyptian Foreign Ministry denounced such despicable acts of sabotage that target the security and stability of Saudi Arabia and its people.

The ministry said attacks harm vital installations and affect energy supplies and international freedom of navigation.

The ministry affirmed Egypt's solidarity with Saudi Arabia, stressing that Cairo backs all measures Riyadh takes to preserve its security, stability and the safety of its citizens.

Saudi authorities announced on Wednesday the foiling of a Houthi militia attack by two bomb-laden boats on oil facilities off the Red Sea shores near Yemen.
