The Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen will continue to attack Israel and will not abide by any rules of engagement, the group’s spokesperson Mohammed Abdulsalam tells Qatar’s Al Jazeera TV, a day after Israel struck Houthi military targets near Yemen’s Hodeida port in retaliation for a drone strike in Tel Aviv on Friday in which one person was killed.
Abdulsalam says there will be “no red lines” in the Houthis’ response to Israel. “All sensitive institutions with all its levels will be a target for us,” he says.
Earlier today, the Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Saree said the terror group’s “response to the Israeli aggression against our country is inevitably coming and will be huge.”
According to the IDF, Yemen’s Houthis in the past nine months have fired over 220 ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and drones at Israel — mostly toward the southernmost city of Eilat — in solidarity with the Gaza Strip, where Israel is battling Hamas terrorists.
