Iran Guards say Saudi Arabia will not be able to contain Yemen’s Houthis
An Iranian Guards spokesman said the more Saudi Arabia attacks, the harder it will be hit in return, as seen in recent days.
Iran's Revolutionary Guards have issued a warning that Saudi Arabia will be unable to contain the Houthis in Yemen, as the rebels intensify their attacks on the kingdom. Guards spokesman Hossein Mohebi stated, "Saudi Arabia will certainly be unable to contain Yemen and Ansarullah or remain safe from their attacks." In recent days, the Houthis have retaliated against Saudi Arabia with increased aggression, demonstrating the volatile nature of the conflict.
The escalation in violence occurred after a series of tit-for-tat strikes in early July, following the arrival of an Iranian plane in Sanaa, the capital of Yemen. This latest flare-up in hostilities has reignited a decade-long war in the region, which was sparked by US-Israeli strikes on Iran on February 28th.
The Houthis have been attempting to blockade Saudi Arabia's Red Sea ports as part of their offensive, and the rebels plan to advance further south from their current territory. This could potentially threaten crucial shipping routes and exacerbate tensions in the already unstable region.
