“We have a firm belief in our leadership and its decisions, which motivates us to continue these operations in support of our brothers in Gaza,” senior Houthi terrorist Abdul Sattar Al-Nehemi told The Media Line on Thursday.
Al-Nehemi further threatened Israel and the United States by stating they could expect “more surprises,” without elaborating.
The leader of the Iranian-backed terror militia, Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, proudly boasted that his group had carried out 96 drone missile attacks in the past five months. The vast majority of these terror attacks focused on international commercial shipping in the Red Sea and Persian Gulf regions.
Following the Hamas terror group’s Oct. 7 massacres of over 1,200 Israelis, the Houthi terrorist group began attacking shipping vessels, claiming that these strikes were conducted in solidarity with Hamas and the Gaza Strip.
Like its Iranian patron, the Houthis demand that the Jewish state end its military operations against Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) terrorists in the Strip.
Samah Lutf, a freelance journalist based in Egypt and Yemen, emphasized that the Houthis are being emboldened by the Iranian support and the relative passivity of the international community.
“Due to regional and local support, generous Iranian backing, and the absence of economic and political accountability towards the world, the Houthis are becoming bolder in their military operations, considering it the only way to improve their image and recreate the popular support they lost due to the economic and political crises they are facing in Yemen,” Lutf assessed.
