Yemen's Houthis warn Israel of naval attacks over Gaza blockade

Mar 09, 2025

Sanaa [Yemen], March 9: Yemen's Houthi fighters have given Israel a four-day deadline to lift its blockade on food, medicine and aid into Gaza, threatening to resume "naval operations" against the country otherwise.
The ultimatum, issued late on Friday, signals a possible escalation from the rebel group after their assaults tailed off in January following a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza. "We give the entire world notice: We are granting a four-day deadline," the group's leader, Abdel-Malik al-Houthi, said in a video statement.
"This deadline is to allow for mediators to continue their efforts. If, after these four days, the Israeli enemy persists in preventing the entry of aid into Gaza, maintains the complete closure of crossings, and continues to block the entry of food and medicine into Gaza, we will resume our naval operations against the Israeli enemy," he said.
