Yemen’s Houthi movement has warned Middle Eastern states against helping enforce a renewed U.S. sanctions campaign against Iran, framing the measures as an “economic” and “psychological” war on the Iranian people. Houthi Deputy Foreign Minister Abdulwahid Abu Ras said regional governments should not become instruments for what the group calls unjust U.S. pressure on Tehran. The warning follows Iran’s own threat to treat countries that assist Washington’s sanctions effort as enemies, amid U.S. plans to target Iran’s oil, shipping, aviation, technology, gold and digital-asset revenue channels. No specific Houthi military action was announced, so claims that the statement signals imminent attacks should be treated as speculation rather than an established fact.
