Iranian FM meets top Houthi official

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi meets in Muscat with Mohammed Abdelsalam, a senior official from Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi movement, according to his office.

The foreign ministry releases pictures of the pair holding talks during Araghchi’s visit to the Omani capital, the latest in a series of diplomatic trips in the region following Israel’s vow to retaliate against an Iranian missile attack.

The Houthis have fired dozens of missiles and drones at Israel over the past year and attacked regional shipping, saying it was in solidarity with Gaza.
