If US joins 'Israeli' attack on Iran, we will target their ships in Red Sea, warn Houthis
Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Saree today issued a strong statement reiterating the group's principled and steadfast rejection of 'Zionist aggression' against their Arab and Islamic brothers in Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, and any other Arab or Islamic country subjected to 'Israeli' attacks, as reflected in previous declarations. The statement described the ongoing battle against the 'Israeli' enemy, particularly its recent aggression targeting Iran, as part of a broader pattern of crimes committed against the Palestinian people, including mass killings and continuous attacks on the Lebanese and Syrian peoples, as well as Yemen itself. The recent escalation against the Islamic Republic of Iran under the guise of 'changing the face of the Middle East' was described as an attempt by Israel, backed by open American support and partnership, to gain full control over the region. Israel enemy sees Iran as the largest obstacle to the realization of its plan. Accordingly, the statement warned that any American aggression supporting 'Israel' against Iran as part of this goal to enable 'Israeli' dominance over the entire region will not be tolerated. Such actions would mean the confiscation of the freedom, independence, dignity, and identity of Arab and Islamic nations, their enslavement, humiliation, occupation of their lands, theft of their resources, and the establishment of a dangerous precedent for the desecration of lives, honor, land, and holy sites. Yahya Saree affirmed that this battle is a collective one for the entire nation. Salvation, pride, and victory lie in action and jihad in the way of God, citing Quranic verses emphasizing fighting in God's cause and divine support for believers who stand firm. The statement further declared that in the event of any American involvement in attacks on Iran alongside Israel, Yemeni forces will target American ships and warships in the Red Sea. The Houthis are closely monitoring all hostile movements in the region, including those against Yemen itself, and will take all necessary and legitimate measures to defend the country and its proud people. Finally, Yahya Saree affirmed the group's unwavering solidarity with any Arab or Islamic country facing Zionist aggression or deciding to confront such aggression in self-defense or in support of the Palestinian resistance fighters. They vowed never to abandon their brothers in Gaza and will not allow this criminal, US-backed entity to realize its plans in the region.
