“The armed forces have begun responding to the American aggression,” Sayyed al-Houthi said. This is Yemen’s choice, decision, and direction as long as the American aggression against our country continues.”
“The aircraft carrier and American warships will be targeted by the Yemeni armed forces, and that the decision to ban navigation will include the Americans as long as their aggression continues, he warned.
