Riyadh, July 04, 2026, SPA — Statement by the Official Spokesperson of the Coalition to Restore Legitimacy in Yemen Major General Turki Al-Malki: “Houthi statements against the Kingdom yesterday are merely an attempt to divert attention away from their grave violations against the brotherly people of Yemen, through which they try to export the economic disasters and Yemeni suffering they have caused, in addition to covering the rejections they face from tribal and social components of Yemen, to their regional periphery and neighboring countries.
The claims they made are an extension of escalations and hostile behavior demonstrated by the Houthi Militia and their attempts to undermine regional and international security. The Kingdom along with the Coalition and international partners have endeavored to undertake initiatives and efforts to alleviate the suffering of the Yemeni people caused by the coup carried out by the Houthi Militia, in addition to resolving the Yemeni crisis through a roadmap, which the legitimate Yemeni Government approved, while the Houthis rejected; as they went beyond by rejecting efforts for lasting peace and attacked Sea Lines of Communication (SLOCs) and international trade in the Southern Red Sea and Bab Al-Mandab Strait. These actions have exposed the capabilities of the Yemeni people to targeting and mass destruction in the Ports of Hodeida, Ras Isa and Salif, in addition to Sana’a International Airport and power stations and industrial plants infrastructures and other major economic components that belong to the Yemeni people.
The Coalition will respond with unprecedented determination and force to any and all attempts to target the Kingdom, its citizens and residents and national assets, or any attempt to violate the sovereignty of the brotherly Republic of Yemen in a manner that conforms with the Customary International Humanitarian Law.”
