Saudi Arabia has expressed solidarity with Pakistan following the devastating floods.
Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs Saturday relayed the Kingdom’s solidarity with Pakistan and its people following the devastating monsoon rains and flooding that killed hundreds and affected tens of thousands.
The ministry said in a statement posted on its official twitter account that it “expressed the Kingdom’s sincere condolences and sympathy to the families of the deceased and to the Government of Pakistan due to this painful incident, wishing the injured a speedy recovery and those missing would survive.”
