Yemen’sHouthi Ansarullah movement has warned the United Arab Emirates to either retreat from the country or face “crippling attacks” on its soil.
Abdul Wahab al-Mahbashi, a member of the Houthi-run Supreme Political Council, warned that Yemeni resistance forces were ready to mount destructive attacks on the tiny Persian Gulf country.
Mohammed al-Bukhaiti, another Supreme Political Council member, also issued a similar warning, saying Abu Dhabi had to “quit escalating tensions,” noting that “the opportunity given to Abu Dhabi is limited.”
Al-Bukhaiti urged the Emirati forces to withdraw from “the country’s western coast and its southern provinces”.
Al-Bukhaiti said any escalation would be met with an “extensive” response from Yemen.
