The head of Yemen’s Houthi Supreme Political Council, Mahdi al-Mashat, says the Iran-aligned group will continue its attacks to support Gaza, Houthi-affiliated Al Masirah TV reports.
He advises Israelis to “remain in shelters because their government will not be able to protect them,” indicating the ceasefire with the US does not include a halt to the group’s attacks on Israel.
The head of Yemen’s Houthi supreme revolutionary committee, Mohammed Ali al-Houthi, meanwhile, says the US halt of “aggression” against Yemen will be evaluated, according to a post on X, which also suggests the rebels will continue attacking Israel.
