Yemen has strongly condemned the Iranian-backed Houthi militia targeting the Saudi capital Riyadh with a ballistic missile.

Yemen's Foreign Affairs Ministry said in a statement: "This aggressive behaviour of targeting Saudi Arabia with ballistic missiles reflects the extent of the danger that this extremist group has become and the level which Iranian influence has reached, which seeks to to harm regional and Arab security after helping the coup militias to cause massive destruction in all the Yemeni cities and towns invaded by the militias."

The statement called on the international community, supportive countries and the Security Council to take strict measures against Houthi militia and consider them as a terrorist organization and to hold both Iran and these bloody militias accountable.
