The main negotiator for the Houthis, Mohammed Abdulsalam, said that the group's position on the war in Gaza has not changed since the US and British strikes in Yemen, the BBC reported.
He said the Houthis would continue to attack ships headed for Israel.
"Strikes to prevent Israeli ships or those heading to the ports of occupied Palestine will continue," Abdulsalam said, the group's first response to the weekend strikes.
He said the group's demands continue to be for an end to Israeli attacks on Gaza and for humanitarian aid to be allowed to reach the northern and southern parts of the Strip. /BGNES
