Lieutenant General bin Aziz pointed out that the experiences of the Yemenis in peace with the Houthi militia are bitter at various stages: The militia’s ideology is violence and racial discrimination; It does not believe in peace and coexistence; and its approach is rebellion against charters and covenants, pointing to the continuation of Houthi hostile operations on cities and public interests and Houthi attacks on army and resistance positions in light of the truce being sponsored by the United Nations and the international community.
