Yemen Houthi leader says will further escalate if attacks on Gaza do not stop

The head of Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthis warned on Tuesday that if Israel's onslaught on Gaza continues, the organization will escalate. The Houthis, who control Yemen's capital and most populous areas, have been attacking international shipping in the Red Sea since November in what they claim is solidarity with Palestinians, prompting US and British retaliation since last month.
