The Houthi spokesman, Muhammad Abdul Salam, said that "communication with Saudi Arabia is ongoing and that its targeting will stop if it ends its attacks," referring to the operations of the Arab coalition in Yemen.

In an interview with the "Bela Hudood" program on the Qatari Al-Jazeera channel, Abdul Salam said, "Saudi Arabia targeted us with a thousand air strikes last month, 90% of them in Marib, and if Riyadh stops its raids, we will stop our marching and missile attacks on them."

The spokesman for the Houthi militia promised to target the Kingdom with missiles and bombed drones until it stopped its bombing of the armed group's sites in Yemen, indicating at the same time that there are continuous communication channels with Saudi Arabia, which he refused to disclose.

He considered that "the American peace plan is the same as the joint declaration plan presented by the United Nations previously," explaining that the group has renewed its rejection of the plan.

Abdul Salam added that the Houthis have no reservations about sitting directly with the Americans, stressing that his group is waiting for the American response through the Omani mediator to their vision to solve the crisis.
