The Federal Government has voiced concern over an attack on an airport in Saudi Arabia, warning that the incident could create fresh security challenges for travellers, including Nigerians planning religious journeys to the kingdom.

The development has drawn attention to the safety of aviation facilities and passengers amid rising tensions in the Middle East. Nigeria stressed the need to protect civilian infrastructure and prevent attacks that could put innocent lives at risk.

The government urged those involved in the regional hostilities to avoid further escalation and pursue diplomatic solutions to their differences. It maintained that dialogue and respect for international law remain essential to preventing further loss of life.

With pilgrimage-related travel requiring careful security planning, the incident has raised questions about the safety arrangements needed to protect international visitors. Nigerian authorities are concerned about developments that could disrupt travel or expose citizens to danger.

Nigeria reiterated its commitment to peaceful conflict resolution and called for concerted efforts to prevent further violence, emphasising that civilian safety must remain a priority in addressing the crisis.
