RIYADH: Saudi Arabia’s King Salman emphasized the necessity of stopping attacks on the Palestinian people during an Eid Al-Fitr speech on Tuesday.

King Salman thanked God for the honor of serving the two holy mosques and its visitors, and the public sectors for their efforts to facilitate the millions of pilgrims who performed Umrah this Ramadan. 

The king wished everyone a happy Eid, and prayed that God preserve the safety, security, and stability of the Kingdom.

The speech was delivered by the Kingdom’s Minister of Media, Salman Al-Dosari, on behalf of the king.
