Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, leader of the Ansarullah resistance movement has warned that the Yemeni armed forces will intervene across various military fronts in support of the Palestinians in Gaza in case Israel resumes its onslaught against the besieged coastal sliver.
On Thursday evening, Abdul-Malik specifically mentioned that Tel Aviv, one of Israel’s most populous cities and a major economic center, will be a primary target for these retaliatory strikes, Press TV reported.
“If war resumes in Gaza, Yemen will intervene militarily, striking the entirety of the Israeli-occupied territories. Tel Aviv will be a primary target,” he said in a televised speech broadcast.
He added, “Yemen is constantly monitoring the implementation of the Gaza ceasefire agreement and is witnessing the extent to which the Zionist enemy is shirking its obligations.”
Houthi noted that Israel is drawing on the support of the United States to infringe upon agreements.
He also condemned Israel’s refusal to withdraw its troops from the Philadelphi Corridor on the Gaza-Egypt border and from the Rafah border crossing as a flagrant violation of the terms of the Gaza truce deal, stressing these breaches are being encouraged by the US.
The Ansarullah leader warned that such conduct poses a dire threat to the Palestinian people as well as the Egyptian nation, government, and army.
