Yemen Houthi official says group will support Iran against Israel

Investing.com -- A senior member of Yemen’s Houthi movement stated Tuesday that the group will intervene to support Iran in its conflict with Israel, similar to how it has backed Palestinians in Gaza.

Mohammed al-Bukhaiti, who serves on the Houthi political bureau, confirmed during an appearance on Al Jazeera Mubasher TV that the organization is coordinating with Tehran amid escalating military tensions between Iran and Israel.

This statement follows the Houthis’ announcement on Sunday that they had targeted Israel in coordination with Iran. That declaration marked the first time an Iran-aligned group has publicly acknowledged joint cooperation with Tehran on attacks.

The Houthis have been conducting attacks against Israel in support of Palestinians in Gaza throughout the ongoing conflict in the region.
