The Houthis: We are preparing for a long battle with the "Israeli" entity

The military spokesman for Ansar Allah Houthis, Yahya Saree, said that the Yemeni armed forces confirm that they will respond to the blatant aggression against Hodeidah.


Saree added in statements following the bombing launched by Israeli occupation aircraft on the Hodeidah region.


The military spokesman for Ansar Allah indicated that the Yemeni forces will not stop operations in support of the brothers in Gaza, whatever the repercussions.


He stressed that the Yemeni forces will respond to the blatant Israeli aggression, and that they are preparing for a long battle with the Israeli entity and the Tel Aviv area is unsafe.


Saree continued: “We will not hesitate to strike the vital targets of the Israeli enemy.”


Earlier, Nasr al-Din bin Amer, deputy head of the media body of the Ansar Allah Houthi group, stated that the Israeli occupation’s aggression against the oil and electricity facilities in Hodeidah will only increase the Yemeni people and their armed forces’ determination to support Gaza.


Bin Amer confirmed that the raids did not target any military targets, but rather targeted civilian targets, noting that the Houthis were certain that the bombing was carried out by "Israeli" aircraft.


The Houthis explained that the raids left martyrs and wounded, noting that they targeted oil and electricity installations in the city of Hodeidah.


He stressed that the Israeli aggression against oil and electricity facilities aims to pressure Yemen to stop its support for Gaza.


Today, Saturday, the Israeli occupation army announced the targeting of Houthi sites in the Hodeidah region in Yemen.


The army said in a statement, "The raids came in response to hundreds of attacks against the State of Israel over recent months."


He added, "There is no change in the instructions of the home front, and if any change occurs, we will announce it."


Video clips showed the effects of the Israeli raids that targeted Houthi sites in the city of Hodeidah.


Houthi-affiliated media said that the city of Hodeidah was witnessing a series of air strikes by the occupation army aircraft, the day after the Houthis carried out an attack with a Houthi march on the city of Tel Aviv in the occupied territories.


Axios correspondent Barak Ravid, quoting a senior American official, said that the Israeli occupation carried out the attack in Yemen.
