Washington, Jumada II 14, 1436, April 03, 2015, SPA -- Saudi Ambassador to the United States of America Adel bin Ahmed Al-Jubeir stressed that the coalition's operations in Yemen are determined to restore stability and legitimacy to Yemen, pointing out that the Houthi movement with the support of Iran and Hezbollah has pushed matters in Yemen to this point. During his participation in a symposium held yesterday at the headquarters of the US Congress entitled "Chaos in Yemen, analysis, diagnosis and prospects" organized by US-Arab Relations Council, the Saudi Ambassador said, “The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has sought for years to strengthen the role of the government and stability in Yemen." He added, "We did not want to do this, but we had no other choice but to respond to the request of Yemeni President Abd Rabbo Mansour Hadi; our goal in the end is to protect the legitimacy in Yemen which was about to be seized by a group supported by Iran and Hezbollah." He pointed out that it has not happened in history that a militia has been able to possess heavy weapons, ballistic missiles and aircraft, saying, "So the coalition's operation is continuing and targeting the bases of heavy weapons", stressing that the Houthi group has targeted a camp for displaced people and a milk factory. --More 12:01 LOCAL TIME 09:01 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
