The GCC chief called on the international community to shoulder its responsibilities and take a firm stance to hold the Houthis accountable and halt the attacks 'immediately and urgently,' affirming the Gulf states' full solidarity with Saudi Arabia and support for the measures it is taking to protect its territory and the safety of its citizens and residents.
