Arab coalition warns Iranians in Yemen

A spokesman for the Arab coalition, Ahmad Hassan al-Assiri, says the forces operating in Yemen will not allow any assistance to reach Houthi rebels through air or land, Ynet reports.

Al-Assiri speaks after Iran said it sent the rebels medical equipment and water. He says the military siege is already showing results. Coalition forces, he adds, will allow medical equipment and food to reach the Yemenite people, so long as shipments are coordinated in advance.

Asked about the presence of Hezbollah fighters or Revolutionary Guards members in Yemen, al-Assiri says: “Those people trained the Houthis and if they are with them in the area now then their fate will be the same as the Houthis’.”
