RIYADH: The Houthi forces are deploying Iranian air shield weaponry that have been altered into cruising rockets, creating a grave danger to passenger airplanes, the speaker for Yemen’s military forces expressed on Saturday.
The weaponry remains being altered by Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps specialists in Yemen and remains being launched from Hodeidah Governorate toward international flight paths over the southern Red Sea, Col. Majid Abdullah Al-Nuzaili expressed.
