Defence minister and his Canadian counterpart review prospects for cooperation and condemn Houthi attacks

Saudi Arabia ·

Prince Khalid bin Salman phoned Canadian Defence Minister David McGuinty and offered condolences for several service members who died in a fire at a Canadian Armed Forces base in Alberta, wishing the injured a speedy recovery. The two ministers also reviewed prospects for cooperation between their countries.

Yemen's Houthi movement (Ansar Allah) has fought the internationally recognized government since 2014, and Saudi Arabia has led a military coalition supporting that government since 2015.
