Iran is sending more weapons to the Houthis following the collapse of its other armed allies across the Middle East, The Telegraph reported Saturday citing a spokesman for Yemen’s army.
Tehran has given the Yemeni militia group enough supplies to keep up its strikes on Israel and attacks on global shipping for “years to come”, the report said citing Abdul Basit Al-Baher, the spokesman for Yemen’s military in the governorate of Taiz.
The recent escalation of Houthi attacks against Israel is “clear evidence that Iran is increasing its support for the Houthis after the weakening of Hamas and Hezbollah and the fall of the Assad regime in the region”, the Yemeni spokesman said.
