"We will respond by shutting down your banks, airport; Your oil facilities and reserves will be in danger"
Yemeni-Houthi leader Abdul-Malik Badreddine Al-Houthi warned in a July 7, 2024 address that was aired on Al-Araby TV (Qatar) against Saudi Arabia’s “collaboration” with the United States, Israel, and Britain in implementing measures to close Sanaa’s banks, airport, and seaport.
He said that these countries want Saudi Arabia to be embroiled in an escalation and full-on war with the Houthis.
Al-Houthi added that Saudi Arabia would be wrong to think that the Houthis are so preoccupied with their direct battle against Israel, America, and Britain that it could attempt to annihilate “our people” without any response. He continued to say that any measure by the Saudis would earn a response in kind - if Sanaa’s banks, airports, and seaports are shut down, so will the Saudis’.
