Speaking at the World Summit on Refugees in New York on Monday, Mohammed bin Naif expressed that in addition to these 2.5 million, the Kingdom has provided full support to the countries that are hosting Syrian refugees.
Shedding light on the role of Kingdom to provide humanitarian assistance, Prince Mohammed said Saudi Arabia has given around $139 billion over the past forty years.
The crown prince went on to claim the Kingdom is offering free education to around 285,000 Yemeni students.
