Member of the Supreme Political Council, Mohammed Ali Al-Houthi, commented on the US statements that followed the operation of the Air Force of the Yemeni Army and Popular Committees, Saturday morning, targeting Abqaiq and Khurais refineries east of Saudi Arabia.
“The US in its statements confirms that he serves his goals in the region only and his first concern is how to carry out his adventures at the expense of others who grinned by the smile until he considers it an achievement and extorts a statement,” Mohammed Al-Houthi said in a tweet.
US President Donald Trump said on Saturday during a phone call with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman that his country was ready to cooperate with Saudi Arabia in all that supports its security, pointing out the negative impact of these attacks on the US economy.
The US Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo claimed in a tweet that Tehran stands behind about 100 attacks were carried out against Saudi Arabia.
Armed Forces spokesman Brigadier Yahya Sare’e in a televised statement confirmed that the air force targeted the Abqaiq and Khurais refineries which are affiliated to Aramco in eastern Saudi Arabia.
He pointed out that targeting Abqaiq and Khurais fields comes within the framework of legitimate response to US-Saudi crimes and siege since 2015. He vowed the Saudi regime that our operation will expand and to be more painful as long as its aggression and siege continue, stressing that there is no solution for the Saudi regime but to stop the aggression and siege on our country.
