The progress the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is achieving in various fields

$66 million for the Masnaa crossing in order to improve movement and trade between the two countries. The question poses itself: would it not be more worthwhile and better for the state to improve the facilitation of goods and traffic movement through Dahr al-Baidar by building the tunnel, and under the BOT system? Knowing that Parliament has approved this project. A state that works backwards as usual.

The purpose of going to local communities was to listen to them directly, understand their needs, and know what can be done immediately in cooperation with the government, and to bring the appropriate partners around these priorities. The importance of these consultations lies not only in documenting needs, but in linking the priorities identified by local communities to those able to address them. For example, we cannot talk about recovery while local communities lack water.

We are aware of our enemies' attempts, led by Iran and its proxies, to carry out attacks that affect the results of the elections in Israel. Faced with these attempts, we must take a unified stance and declare clearly that political dispute will not affect our joint position against our enemies. We will work side by side with the Israeli army and the security forces to defend the state whenever and wherever needed. Decisions will be taken according to security needs, regardless of any other considerations. Let our enemies know: anyone who attacks us, before or after the elections, and anyone who harms Israeli army soldiers or Israeli citizens, will have his hand cut off and will pay the heaviest price.
