Houthi militia’s attempts to target Kingdom will be met by unprecedented force: Coalition
RIYADH: Any attempts by Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi militia to target the Kingdom will be met by “unprecedented determination and force,” the Saudi-led coalition said early on Saturday in a statement posted to social media and carried by the Saudi Press Agency.
“Houthi statements against the Kingdom yesterday are merely an attempt to divert attention away from their grave violations against the brotherly people of Yemen,” said Maj. Gen. Turki Al-Maliki, the coalition’s spokesperson.
He categorized the militia’s latest threats as an attempt to undermine regional and international security.
“The coalition will respond with unprecedented determination and force to any and all attempts to target the Kingdom, its citizens and residents and national assets, or any attempt to violate the sovereignty of the brotherly Republic of Yemen,” he said.
