Eryani: Houthi booby-trapping of boats threatens commercial ships and international shipping lines

[07/10/2021 01:19]

RIYADH – SABA
Minister of Information Muammar Al-Eryani, said, "The terrorist acts carried out by the Iranian-backed Houthi militia, and their serious and continuing threat to international shipping lanes, stresses the imperative of deterring them and designating them as a terrorist organization."

He said that the militia's continued production and manufacture of explosive boats, and the use of the port of Hodeidah as sites for assembling and booby-trapping these boats and a starting point for threatening commercial ships in international shipping lines, betrays the militia's exploitation of the Stockholm Agreement to implement its terrorist activities in implementation of the Iranian agenda.

Al-Eryani praised the exceptional efforts made by the Saudi-led coalition to support the legitimacy in aborting terrorist operations.

He called on the international community, the United Nations, and the UN and US envoys to condemn the activities of the terrorist Houthi militia that destabilize security and stability.
