Yemeni government condemns Houthi militia's launching of ballistic missiles towards the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

Aden, June 23, 2020, SPA -- The Yemeni government condemned in the strongest terms the renewed attacks with drones and ballistic missiles on the cities of Saudi Arabia by the Iranian-backed Houthi terrorist militia. The spokesperson for the Yemeni government, Rajeh Badi, in a statement to the official Yemeni news agency said that these attacks reveal the reality of these terrorist militias and their allegations of peace and put them to the test in front of regional and international public opinion. The Yemeni government affirmed its support for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and its absolute support for its right to defend itself and confront the terrorist Houthi militia supported by Iran. The Yemeni government also confirms that the continuation of these attacks repeatedly against the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia confirms the fact that these militias are now operating as an arm of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. He pointed out that the continuation of attacks against Saudi cities reveals the criminal intentions of these militias towards the United Nations peace efforts which these militias did not believe in, and were met only with further escalation and crimes against civilians. --SPA
