    …The report came after Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, leader of Yemen’s Ansarullah resistance movement, said the group would act against expansionist Israeli activities in Somalia.

    Speaking on June 25, al-Houthi said Ansarullah “will take the initiative at any time to thwart Israeli activities on Somali soil and will not stand idly by in the face of Israeli expansion in the Horn of Africa,” adding that the movement would continue coordinating with its allies during any future regional escalation.

    He also said the Israeli regime was seeking to establish a presence in Somalia in order to control the strategic Gulf of Aden and the Bab al-Mandab Strait, a key maritime route for global shipping.

    “We are monitoring with great concern the developments on the ground in Somalia and what the Israeli enemy is doing to take control of the Gulf of Aden and Bab al-Mandab,” he said.

    Al-Houthi called on countries bordering the Red Sea to adopt a unified position against Israeli interference in the region.
