In a statement, the Ministry said, "Referring to the abusive statements issued by the Lebanese Minister of Information, regarding the efforts of the countries of the coalition to support legitimacy in Yemen led by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs expresses its regret for the insults contained in those statements towards the Kingdom and the countries of the coalition which represent a clear bias toward the terrorist Houthi militia that threatens the security and stability of the region.
