Saudi embassy denounces accusations
The Saudi Arabian Embassy in Beirut on Tuesday responded to the “slander that abounds against Saudi Arabia” and accusations that the Kingdom was distributing weapons and igniting Sunni – Shia sedition.
The Embassy denied that such accusations had “anything to do with the truth,” adding that such rumors perpetuated by and through the media on distorted reality.
“Enough is enough. We are headed for a new phase, and must all work to facilitate the transition,” the embassy said in a statement.
“Saudi Arabia is the Kingdom of goodness and humanity that supports reconstruction and builds schools, hospitals, universities, bridges and stands by Lebanon through crises and wars,” the statement added.
