One of the leading member of the Iran-backed Houthi movement has threatened to turn Yemen into “graveyard” for the United States, following a recent airstrike attack by the US on the rebel group.
Reacting to the attack in an interview with Iran’s state news agency IRNA, the prominent member identified as Ali al-Qahoum lashed out at the United States with derogatory remarks, revealing the preparedness of Yemen to face the US.
“After this aggression, Yemen will turn into the graveyard of the Americans and they will leave the region in humiliation.
“Yemen’s leaders, armed forces, and people are fully prepared to enter a direct and all-out war with the Great Satan to defend Palestine,” Ali al-Qahoum said.
Recall that the Shiite Houthis have repeatedly attacked ships in the Red Sea on their way to Israel.
In response, the U.S. and its allies bombed the positions of the militant Islamist group in Yemen.
