LONDON/ADEN/CAIRO ¨C Yemen¡¯s Houthis said on Tuesday they could only reconsider their missile and drone attacks on international shipping in the Red Sea once Israel ends its ¡°aggression¡± in the Gaza Strip.
Asked if they would halt the attacks if a cease-fire deal is reached, Houthi spokesman Mohammed Abdulsalam said the situation would be reassessed if the siege of Gaza ended and humanitarian aid was free to enter.
¡°There will be no halt to any operations that help Palestinian people except when the Israeli aggression on Gaza and the siege stop,¡± he said, ahead of new reports of another suspected attack.
