Bangladesh has condemned the recent use of explosive-laden drones, launched by Yemen's Houthi rebels, against the southern part of Saudi Arabia. This attack was launched on January 17, with an escalation of hostility and aggression of the Houthi militias, adding to further tension in the region, said the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) Wednesday.
