Saudi Arabia and Kuwait have made swift and clear denials over press reports that Israeli warplanes would be allowed to fly in their airspace during an attack on Iran.
An informed Saudi official branded the reports "stupid", and a "pathetic way (from Israel) to gain some recognition from some Arab countries or Muslim countries" through giving the impression that it has communications with the Kingdom.
However, these Arab and Muslim countries "didn't buy it", the official said.
"Of course, Saudi Arabia would never open its air space and land to a friendly country to launch an illegal attack on another country, let alone to open its space for a country that doesn't have any relationship with Saudi Arabia," the official explained to Gulf News.
