SANAA, Yemen (AA) - Yemen’s Houthi group said Tuesday that it received a message from the US conveyed via Amman threatening to open fronts against it in response to its anti-Israel actions.

''The American threatening message is in response to the Yemeni people's rejection of the killing of people in Gaza,'' Muhammad Ali Al-Houthi, a member of the group’s Supreme Political Council, said in a statement on X.

"We say to the US that any folly in carrying out the American threat will fail and will not stop the Yemeni people from their mission to support Gaza,'' he added.

There has been no comment so far from the US on the Houthis' statement.’

The Houthis have been targeting commercial vessels in the Red Sea, particularly those bound for Israel.

They say their attacks aim to put pressure on Israel to halt its deadly onslaught on the Gaza Strip, prompting the US and UK to launch retaliatory airstrikes against Houthi targets inside Yemen.

The Red Sea is one of the world's most frequently used sea routes for oil and fuel shipments.
