Yemen urges halt to Houthi weapons supplies
The leader of the Yemeni Presidential Leadership Council, Rashad Al-Alimi, calls for adopting a more firm international approach to counter Iranian interventions in the region by exerting simultaneous pressure on Tehran and its affiliated armed groups, and by drying up their sources of funding and weapons supply. He emphasizes the importance of strengthening the capabilities of the Yemeni government and unifying its institutions to protect sovereignty and territorial waters, especially amid the Houthis' escalation, which has included targeting ports and civilian facilities, and threatening international navigation in the Red Sea and the Bab al-Mandab Strait. Al-Alimi considers that the security of maritime passages is fundamentally linked to the Yemeni state's ability to establish its authority, and calls on the international community to pursue arms smuggling networks and combat the financing of the Houthi group. He also stresses the need to support Yemen in protecting its maritime interests, noting that ongoing Houthi attacks threaten regional security and exacerbate the suffering of the Yemeni people.
