Houthi leader says policy of targeting ships deemed Israel-linked is still in place

Yemeni Houthi militia leader Abdul Malik al-Houthi claims no company can be permitted to transport goods related to Israel through designated areas at sea.

He reiterates that a Houthi decision to attack ships the Iran-backed group sees as associated with Israel through the Red Sea, Gulf of Aden and the Arabian Sea remains in place.

The Iran-aligned Houthis sank two ships in the Red Sea this week after months of calm.
