The commander of the Quds Force of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, Ismail Qaani, admitted Tehran's explicit support for the attacks launched by the Houthi militia against targets in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, saying that these militias launched "in less than ten days, 18 precise operations" against Saudi Arabia, as he put it.

According to the "Tasnim" agency affiliated with the Revolutionary Guards, Qaani's statements came during a speech he was speaking at the Ayat Cultural Complex in Mashhad, on Friday.

The Iranian Quds Force commander affirmed the country's continued interference in Yemen's internal affairs and its continuous encouragement of the Houthi militia to target civilian areas and economic facilities in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.


He also returned to the language of threat against the United States, saying that "America's bone-breaking voice will be heard in due course."

Qaani also raised the ceiling of threats against Israel, saying that it "is protecting itself today with a separation wall," vowing to destroy it.

The Iranian Quds Force commander also did not hide his country's support for armed groups around the world, which he described as "the forces of resistance against global arrogance," adding that "these forces will confront the arrogant and heavily armed around the world," as he put it.
