Houthi leader: 'A full-scale escalation will be met with full-scale escalation' In a televised statement, Houthi leader Abdul Malik al-Houthi addressed the Yemeni people, claiming readiness for full-scale escalation "if the Saudi enemy chooses full-scale escalation". With regards to the ongoing tensions in the region, al-Houthi reiterated his group's support for Iran. "Some regimes are angered when Iran responds to the American bases in their territory, although they are the very bases from which attacks were launched. The bare minimum is that those regimes remain neutral and not allow the Americans to use their lands or airspace," he said.
