Israel’s ambassador to the UN on Monday issued what he called a final warning to Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthis to halt missile attacks on Israel, saying they risked the same “miserable fate” as Hamas, Hezbollah and Syria’s Bashar al-Assad if they persisted, reports Al Jazeera.
The ambassador, Danny Danon, also warned Tehran that Israel has the ability to strike any target in the Middle East, including Iran. He added that Israel would not tolerate attacks by Iranian proxies.
Danon said that Israel would not tolerate further Houthi attacks.
“To the Houthis, perhaps you have not been paying attention to what has happened to the Middle East over the past year,” he said.
“Well, allow me to remind you what has happened to Hamas, to Hezbollah, to Assad, to all those who have attempted to destroy us. Let this be your final warning. This is not a threat. It is a promise. You will share the same miserable fate,” Danon said.
