Houthis warn that any US aggression "will not go unanswered"
Houthi leader Abdul Malik Al-Houthi said that any US aggression against Yemen “will not go unanswered,” amid fears that the rebel group's attacks could escalate Israel’s war against Hamas into a wider regional conflict.
Al-Houthi said in a speech on Thursday that the response from the group will be “much greater” than this week’s barrage of drones and missiles on the Red Sea.
“The answer will not only be attacking the Americans in the sea with more than 24 drones and missiles — the response will be much more," al-Houthi said.
The leader said that Yemen is ready “to confront American aggression” and criticized US and UK support for Israel, stating it “will not deter” Yemen's actions.
Al-Houthi said the strategy in preventing Israeli-linked ships from traversing the Red Sea has been effective, citing the recent American attack on the Houthis’ navy as evidence of this impact.
Furthermore, al-Houthi accused the US and the UK of trying to involve other countries in the confrontation against Yemen, warning that those who target Yemen and its naval forces risk their maritime safety and commercial shipping interests.
"Those who want to get involved and attack our people and target the naval forces are risking their maritime safety and their commercial ships," al-Houthi said.
Some background: The Iran-backed Houthis began launching the attacks soon after the start of Israel's war against Hamas in Gaza, claiming they were targeting ships with ties to Israel as they stood in solidarity with the Palestinian people.
On Wednesday, the United Nations Security Council approved a resolution calling on the group to “cease its brazen” attacks in the Red Sea, as the United States and Britain hinted at military strikes.
The warnings come as the militants continue a weeks-long campaign to launch drones and missiles at vessels in the commercially vital shipping lane, which they say are revenge against Israel for its military campaign in Gaza.
