US, Saudi navy chiefs discuss maritime security

 Saudi Arabia's Ministry of Defense said on Wednesday that the country's naval Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Muhammad Al-Ghurairi met with United States Naval Forces Central Command and Fifth Fleet Commander Kurt Renshaw to discuss maritime cooperation.

The ministry said in a post on X that the talks aimed to serve the countries' shared interests, strengthen maritime security, and promote "freedom of navigation in the region."

The meeting follows Houthi claims of attacks on two Saudi airports and a United Arab Emirates statement condemning the group's targeting of Saudi vessels in the southern Red Sea and the Bab al-Mandab Strait. Separately, the Royal Saudi Navy is organizing the fourth Saudi International Maritime Forum in Riyadh from November 23 to 25, 2026.
