The official spokesman of the Transitional Council said that the terrorist Houthi militia continues its aggression with drones on oil facilities in the governorates of Shabwa and Hadhramout, as it targeted at the nights of October 18 and 19, 2022, Al-Nashima port in Shabwa governorate, and today, Friday, October 21, 2022, it targets Al-Dhiba port for exporting oil in Hadhramout governorate with two drones. This threatens the oil facilities and marine navigation in the Arabian Sea.

Condemnation is no longer sufficient for the Houthi arrogance, with whom talk about extending the truce is no longer acceptable. Therefore, we reserve our right to respond to this arrogance and the corresponding aggressive Houthi escalation on the fronts of confrontation in Al-Dhale, Yafa' and Karsh.

The international community is required to include these Iranian-backed Houthi militias on the lists of terrorist organizations and to take the necessary measures to curb and deter them.
