The Houthi-run Foreign Ministry in Sanaa expressed solidarity with Iran following US strikes across the country, saying the attacks would not weaken Tehran’s resolve.
In a statement carried by the Houthi-controlled Saba news agency, the ministry said Iran has a legitimate right under international law to respond to the US strikes.
The ministry accused Washington of further escalating regional tensions and said the United States would bear responsibility for the consequences of its actions, along with those supporting the strikes.
The Houthi-run ministry also warned countries hosting US forces that they could face “repercussions.”
It said governments allowing their territories to be used as platforms for US attacks “must pay the price,” without specifying what measures could be taken.
The statement comes amid heightened regional tensions following the latest US strikes on Iran and Tehran’s retaliatory attacks against US interests across the region.
