The king also opposed Iran's interfering in other states' internal affairs, denouncing Iran's "terror acts" and calling for the Arab world against Iran.
Aboul-Gheit noted that the crises perplexing the Middle East will further deteriorate and weaken the entire region if not harnessed.
He criticized Iran as it supports the Shiite Houthi rebels which shatters Yemen and endangers bordering Saudi Arabia, saying the Arab states shall stand together with Saudi Arabia and unite against Iran.
Yemen's internationally-recognized government, backed by Saudi-led coalition, has been battling over three years Iran-backed Houthi rebels over control of the country.
UN statistics show over 10,000 people, most of them civilians, have been killed and around 3 million displaced.
Houthi rebels have been firing missiles at Saudi cities, airports and civilian neighborhoods, most of which have been reportedly intercepted by Saudi air defense system.

Meanwhile, more nonaligned comments were made.
