The Houthi group reiterated that its attacks on Israeli ships or vessels heading towards ports in "occupied Palestine" will not stop, the group's spokesperson Mohamed Abdelsalam told Al Jazeera on Thursday.
The spokesperson also warned that its militants will respond to any potential attack by the United States or the United Kingdom on the territory of Yemen.
Earlier, the US Central Command confirmed that American forces launched strikes targeting the Houthi group in Yemen following the latest attack on the US ship in the Gulf of Aden.
