بيان صادر عن الأمين العام بشأن الهجوم على الرياض
ترجمة غير رسمية
أشعر بصدمة عميقة وأدين بشدة الهجوم الدامي الذي شنّه الحوثيون يوم السبت على مطار الملك خالد الدولي في الرياض بالمملكة العربية السعودية، والذي أسفر، بحسب التقارير، عن مقتل 12 شخصاً وإصابة مئات المدنيين.
إن الهجمات على المدنيين والبنية التحتية المدنية تشكّل انتهاكاً للقانون الدولي. ويجب أن تتوقف هذه الهجمات فوراً.
نيويورك، 10 تشرين الأول/أكتوبر 2026
I am deeply shocked by & strongly condemn Saturday’s lethal attack by the Houthis on King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, which reportedly killed 12 people & injured hundreds of civilians.
Attacks on civilians & civilian infrastructure are a violation of international law. These attacks must cease immediately.

When power trumps principle, both small states and great powers suffer.
Borderless challenges can only be contained through binding cooperation.

Russia’s continuous attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure are leaving people without power in freezing temperatures and costing civilian lives.
This is a stark reminder that the greatest threat to European and transatlantic security is Russia.
Our focus must not drift.

#Rohingya survivor delegates supported by LAW witnessed history at the @CIJ_ICJ as the first week of merits hearings in The Gambia v. #Myanmar concluded.
They stand for a community denied citizenship and basic rights, demanding recognition, accountability, and dignity.
