Houthi leader warns UAE of more retaliatory strikes

Tehran, Jan 17 (UNI) Senior Houthi leader Zeifollah al-Shami on Monday said the drone attacks targeting the UAE’s oil storage tanks in Mussafah were “a legitimate and legal retaliation” and warned that the entire United Arab Emirate is “within the range of the Yemeni military”.
Al-Shami, who is the Information Minister of Yemen's National Salvation Government, said the “attack by the Yemeni armed forces against the UAE was part of a legal and legitimate response that was carried out in retaliation to the escalation of war by the UAE and its continuous military actions against the people of Yemen”.
In an interview with Tasnim News Agency, he said the UAE has been carrying out attacks on Yemen though it had officially announced its withdrawal from Yemen. Not only did the UAE not withdraw its forces, but it “intensified airstrikes and increased its plots against Yemen and its people”, he said.
