In the meeting, the Minister of Interior expressed his condolences, and those of all members of the Ministry of Interior, for the martyrdom of an officer and a non-commissioned officer, and the injury of a third officer from the Saudi armed forces in the treacherous and cowardly attack while performing their duty in training and supporting the Yemeni forces in the First Military Region in the city of Seiyun.

The Minister of Interior reviewed with the Joint Forces Command areas of cooperation between the Joint Forces and the Ministry of Interior, especially in the field of combating terrorism, working to enhance the capabilities of the Yemeni security services to address the various threats facing the region, and the importance of intensifying joint efforts and exchanging information and expertise to contribute to stabilizing the security situation. He expressed his appreciation for the continuous support provided by the Kingdom to Yemen in various fields, especially in the security field.
