Ali al-Qahoum, a member of the Ansar Allah political office, announced that any threat to this strategic point would be a threat to Yemen's territorial integrity. He pointed to Yemen's rich history and culture, asserting that the people of Yemen will never allow their sovereignty to be jeopardized and will spare no effort to defend their land.
A Painful Future for Saudi Arabia
Al-Qahoum also warned that the situation for Saudi Arabia will become much more painful in the near future, given the current state of affairs. He stated that if Saudi Arabia continues its hostile policies towards Yemen, severe consequences await this country.
