Yemeni Interior Minister Ahmed Al-Misri called for national unity to restore state institutions from the grip of the Iranian-backed Houthi militia. “The state is the guarantor and the only guarantor to achieve security and stability, and we must stand together to defeat the Houthis," he said. He said the Houthis threatened the country’s security and stability. He praised the support provided by the Saudi-led Arab coalition to restore the state and eliminate the militia.
