Media: Saudi Arabia responds to the distress of an Iranian-flagged ship in the Red Sea

Al-Arabiya channel reported that Saudi Arabia responded today, Thursday, to a distress call from a ship carrying the Iranian flag in the Red Sea.

The channel indicated that the ship, which was carrying the Iranian flag, called for help after one of its members was injured.

It was noted that the injured person holds Iranian nationality, and that the injury required his transfer to the hospital for treatment.

It is worth noting that after the two countries agreed with Chinese mediation to resume diplomatic relations and reopen their Embassies, Iran reopened its Embassy in Riyadh on June 6.

Tehran appointed its former Ambassador to Kuwait, Ali Reza Enayati, as its new Ambassador to Riyadh.
