US President Donald Trump made a statement regarding the Houthis' attacks on Saudi Arabia. Pointing to the elections to be held in the US in 21 days, Trump said, "The Houthis have emerged again with Iran's provocation. They are deliberately trying to escalate oil prices before the US elections. I will be in office after the elections and I will never forget."
US President Donald Trump made a harsh statement regarding the Houthis' latest missile and UAV attacks targeting Saudi Arabia.
TRUMP'S WARNING TO THE HOUTHIS
Claiming that Iran is behind the attacks, Trump said these moves were intended to deliberately escalate oil prices ahead of the US elections to be held in about three weeks. Emphasizing that he would continue his duty after the elections as well, Trump intimidated the actors escalating the tension, saying, "I am here after the election too, and I will never forget this."
"I THOUGHT THEY HAD LEARNED THEIR LESSON"
In his statement, Trump said: "The Houthis are behaving very badly. When we bombed them a year ago and made their lives hell, and we stopped at their request, I thought they had learned their lesson.
"THEY HAVE EMERGED AGAIN WITH IRAN'S PROVOCATION"
They had been quiet for a long time, but now they have emerged again, probably at the provocation of Iran, a collapsing country with no navy, no air force, the world's worst economy and 301 percent inflation.
"I WILL BE IN OFFICE AFTER THE ELECTIONS AND I WILL NEVER FORGET"
They are hitting Saudi Arabia very disgustingly and are probably trying to deliberately escalate oil prices ahead of the US elections. Not nice at all.
Someone should explain to them that I am not running in the elections, that I have already won by a landslide. But I will be in office after the elections and I will never forget!"
HOUTHI ATTACKS ON SAUDI ARABIA
Five airports in Saudi Arabia have been subjected to 10 attacks in the past week. Twenty people died and hundreds were injured in the attacks; there was also serious damage and disruption to flight traffic.
The most affected location in the attacks was King Khalid International Airport in the capital Riyadh, which was targeted 5 times and whose operational activities were temporarily suspended. King Fahd International Airport in the city of Dammam in the Eastern Province was the target of 2 attacks.
Abha International Airport in the south of the country, King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz International Airport in Jazan, and Najran International Airport were each attacked once.
The Saudi-led Arab Coalition has been supporting the internationally recognized Yemeni government since March 2015.
While clashes between government forces and the Houthis in Yemen have recently escalated, Iran-backed Houthis, claiming that they are being attacked, are targeting Saudi Arabia with ballistic missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles.
