Yemeni Presidential Leadership Council Chairman Rashad Al-Alimi said that securing international maritime navigation begins with eliminating the Houthi threat on land.

Al-Alimi added that postponing action against the Houthis increases both humanitarian and security costs, calling for decisive international measures to end the Houthi threat and support the restoration of the state, according to Al-Hadath.

He noted that the Houthi militia continues its escalation of terrorist activities with Iranian support, stressing that attacks on airports and assaults on Taiz, Marib, and Shabwa reveal the militia's terrorist nature.
