Yemen's Houthi movement warned Friday evening that they will not remain idle amid the aggression in Lebanon, according to the group's statement. The warning comes against the backdrop of recent Israeli strikes in Lebanon and heightened regional tensions involving Iran and its proxies.
Yemen's Houthi movement issued a warning Friday evening, saying it will not remain idle amid what it described as 'aggression in Lebanon.' The one-sentence statement, published by the group, did not specify any operational plans or timeframe.
As The Zioneer has previously reported, the Houthis have escalated their rhetoric in recent weeks, including claims of preparing a joint retaliation with Iran's IRGC against Israel (June 14) and warnings about continued US aggression against Iran (June 11). The group has also demonstrated the capability to project power into Israel's eastern theater — warning of infiltration from the east — and earlier this month refueling aircraft operated over the Persian Gulf, Syria, and Jordan in an apparent sign of heightened readiness.
The current warning aligns with a series of threats from Iran and its proxies as Israeli strikes in Lebanon have continued. The Houthis' statement remains at a declaratory level with no verified operational follow-up.
