The “foreign minister” of Yemeni Hooty terrorist organization, told Reuters in a report released Tuesday that jihadists were not kept up to the terrorism of “dial-down talk” in the Red Sea, suggesting that they ignore Iran's calls to stop attacks on commercial vessels in the region.
Jamal Amar, the “foreign minister” of Ansal Laterrorist group, which controls Sanaa's Yemeni capital, spoke with Reuters late Monday after announcing that it would resume last week's attacks on the Red Sea about escalating violence between Hooty terrorists and the US.
Houthis declared a war with Israel in 2023, in solidarity with fellow Iran-backed jihadist group Hamas, following the massacre of Hamas of more than 1,000 civilians in an Israeli invasion in October of that year. But rather than directly attacking Israel, Houthis launched a campaign to bomb commercial vessels at sea. Houthi leaders claim that the campaign targets only Israeli and American ships, but in reality they randomly bombed dozens of commercial vessels, including ships associated with Houthi-friendly regimes like Russia, China and Iran.
The campaign was eased for a while after January, when Hamas and Israel began talking about a ceasefire in Gaza. The Houthi leader claimed that the attack would resume last week. On Saturday, US President Donald Trump announced a series of airstrikes in Yemen, intended to undermine the Houtis' ability to hamper global trade.
Trump repeatedly urged the Houches to stop their terrorist acts, threatening Iranian patrons with a direct military response if they did not act to contain the threat of terrorists. Reuters It has been reported On Tuesday, Iranian officials allegedly told the Houtis “cool tensions,” but Amar spoke to the news agency and refused to receive such a message.
He claimed that even if he had it, Iran had no authority to tell Ansarlah to stop the bombing.
“We have no talk of dial-downs on the operation before we finish the Gaza aid blockade,” Amer was quoted as saying. “Iran has not interfered with our decisions, but sometimes it mediates what is happening, but we can't decide things.”
“The (US) is threatening Iran and attacking Yemen. Now all scenarios are possible,” he added. “We do what they do to us. If they are attacking us (US airline USS Harry S.) we are attacking us from Truman, we will retaliate by hitting Truman.”
Houthi leaders claimed they were targeted USS Harry TrumanIt exists in the Red Sea region in response to Houthi's copyright infringement, but the pentagon could not confirm them I tried To do so, Truman “They missed over 100 miles” targets.
Amer further told Reuters that Houches is “at war with the United States and that means we have the right to protect ourselves in all possible ways, so escalation is likely.” He added that for now the war does not involve attacks on US-ally affiliated Gulf countries such as Saudi Arabia or the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Houthis has a history of bombing Saudi Arabia in response to support Yemen's legitimate government that ousted Houthis out of Sana'a in 2014, causing an ongoing civil war. Many of their terrorists use the title of government, as Houthis mistakenly claims to be a Yemeni government.

Like Amaa, Hoothi's “Defense Minister” and Major General Mohamed Nasser al-Achifi; It has been declared On Tuesday, Housis said “We will meet escalations with escalations.”
“Al-Atifi stressed that Yemen's military capabilities, including missile forces, drones and naval units, are ready for peak missions to defend Arab and Islamic countries,” he argued.
Similarly, Abdul-Malik Al-Houthi, head of the Houthi Terrorist Organization, promised to “escalate” terrorist activities in a jammed Cen-style speech on Sunday following the first wave of American airstrikes.
“We respond to escalations and escalations. We will target aircraft carriers, warships and attack American enemies by imposing blockades on the ship,” Houthi vowed. “If the US invasion of our country continues, we will escalate further with additional measures.”
Trump stressed in his military action announcement that Houthis has been bankrolled and diplomatically funded by Iran, and that Iran's support for the terrorist movement will cost Tehran.
“The Iran-funded Houthi Thugs launched missiles on US aircraft and targeted our troops and allies,” Trump wrote in a message posted on his social media site, Truth Social. “These relentless attacks cost the US and the global economy billions and at the same time put innocent lives at risk.”
“To Iran: Hooty's support for terrorists must end soon! Please don't intimidate the American people,” he continued.
Trump again issued a message to Iran on Monday, declaring that “the hundreds of attacks being carried out by the sinister Yemen-based gangs and thugs Hooty, who are hated by the people of Yemen, are all emanating and created from Iran.”
Iran continues, “It dictates every move, gives weapons, supplies money and extremely sophisticated military equipment, and even supplies so-called “intellect.” ”
“All shots fired by Houthis are considered from this point onwards as shots fired from Iran's weapons and leadership, and Iran is responsible, suffering from consequences, and those consequences are miserable!” he warned.
