Mohammed Ali al-Houthi, a member of the Supreme Political Council of Yemen’s Houthi rebels, said that the US strikes “support the terrorism of the temporary Israeli entity to continue the genocide and siege of the people of Gaza”, reports Al Jazeera.
“The American terrorist attacks confirm the lawless rampage and criminality in the region,” he said on X (Formerly known as twitter).
“The reckless terrorist actions against Yemen do not stop the support [for Gaza],” the official added.
The Red Sea has seen high military activity for more than a year as the US forces continue to attack the Houthis, who have attacked ships in the region in support of the Palestinians in Gaza.
The US army said it struck drones and missiles of the group over the Red Sea on Saturday and attacked its infrastructure in the Yemeni capital, Sanaa.
