Saudi FM says Red Sea attacks linked to Israel’s war in Gaza, ceasefire needed

Saudi Arabia’s foreign minister said on Tuesday that Houthi attacks on commercial ships in the Red Sea are connected to the war in Gaza and there is a need for an immediate ceasefire there.

Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud said during the World Economic Forum (WEF) meeting in Davos that the Kingdom’s priority is finding a path to de-escalation through a ceasefire in Gaza.

He also said that the Kingdom could recognize Israel if a comprehensive agreement was reached that included statehood for the Palestinians.
