Houthi rebels threaten America
On the other hand, Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi rebels have threatened that if the US takes part in military action against Iran along with Israel, they will launch attacks on American ships and warships in the Red Sea. Houthi military spokesman Brigadier General Yahya Sari said in a pre-recorded video, “If the US attacks Iran along with Israel, our forces will target their ships in the Red Sea.” This statement has come at a time when US President Donald Trump is considering military action along with Israel.
German cyclist detained in Iran
In another news, Iran has admitted for the first time that it has detained a German cyclist on charges of espionage. Iran said that this arrest took place in Markazi province, where Iran’s Arak heavy water reactor is located. This arrest took place last year. Iran’s move is probably an attempt to put pressure on Germany, as Germany is among the countries that are participating in diplomatic talks with Iran. Germany’s Foreign Ministry has refused to comment on this matter.
