Britain strongly condemned the recent threats by the Houthis against Saudi Arabia, affirming its solidarity with the Kingdom against these threats.

A British Foreign Office spokesperson said in a statement on Tuesday that 'these provocations threaten to increase regional instability, endanger freedom of navigation in the Red Sea, and undermine efforts to achieve peace in Yemen.'

He added emphatically: 'We stand firmly with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and other partners in the region in facing these threats, and we call on the Houthis to immediately cease their escalatory actions.'
