The UK supports greater cooperation between Israel and Arab states to address shared security threats and strengthen regional stability. We remain supportive of the Abraham Accords and the contribution they have made to dialogue, cooperation and regional security. We unequivocally condemn recent Houthi attacks against Saudi Arabia and are working closely with regional and international partners to counter the Houthi threat, support the internationally recognised Government of Yemen, deter further destabilising activity and promote long-term stability.
