Syed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi: Saudi Arabia has falsely accused the Yemeni people of harming the Islamic holy places, Mecca and Medina, and this is a great slander. Some could have waited and verified before rushing to make a misjudgment regarding the Saudi defamation. We assure our people and loved ones in the southern provinces that they are not being targeted by the armed forces. We confirm that the Saudi enemies claim that the city of Taiz is under siege is both false and fabricated. The only thing denied entry is weapons, and only to the Saudi-affiliated militias that are killing the Yemeni people.
