Nasr al-Din Amer, a senior Houthi official, addressed the Israeli strike on Sanaa airport in Yemen, saying: 'The enemy concentrated its attacks on fuel tanks, power stations and concrete plants to ignite fires and create smoke clouds and a different image than that created by the Yemeni strike.' According to him, 'Most targets are ones that have been attacked before, dozens of times in recent years. The maritime and air blockade on Israel will not be lifted until the attacks on Gaza stop.'
