Statement after the Houthis seize an Israel-linked ship in the Red Sea:

“The Yemeni armed forces renew their warning to all ships belonging to the Israeli enemy or dealing with it that they will become a legitimate target for the armed forces.

“The Yemeni armed forces confirm that they will continue to carry out military operations against the Israeli enemy until the aggression against the Gaza Strip stops and the heinous crimes that continue until this moment against our Palestinian brothers in Gaza and the West Bank stop.

“They also confirm that whoever threatens the security and stability of the region and international corridors is the Zionist entity, and society. If the international community is concerned about the security and stability of the region and not expanding the conflict, it should stop the Israeli aggression against Gaza.” (Tweet)Yahya Sarea, Twitter post, November 19, 2023, 11:34 a.m., https://twitter.com/army21ye/status/1726277654544785788.
