The Arab Interior Ministers Council have condemned the Houthi militias in Yemen for firing a ballistic missile targeting the holy city of Mecca on Thursday.

A statement by the media office of the council in Cairo said on Saturday that the council's general secretariat regretted the Houthi assault targeting Mecca, which, it said unveils the real ugly face of this terrorist gang. 

At the same time, the statement praised the performance of the Arab coalition in its defiance against terror acts.

The secretariat said it is important to cooperate to fight sectarian sedition, which is sowed by regional powers to serve their resentful plots against the Muslim and Arab nation, according to the statement.
