Cairo, July 21 (Petra) - The Arab Parliament blasted on Tuesday the recent remarks by the Houthis accusing Saudi Arabia of blockading the Yemeni people and restricting maritime navigation.

Arab Parliament Speaker Mohammed Yamahi rejected the accusations, calling them "provocative, irresponsible, and contradictory" to Saudi Arabia's ongoing humanitarian and financial support for Yemen.

Yamahi stated the parliament's opposition to any threats or offensive statements targeting Saudi Arabia, stressing that the country’s security and sovereignty are integral to Arab national security.

He also called on the international community to enforce relevant UN Security Council resolutions to safeguard Red Sea navigation and deter actions threatening regional and international peace.
