The Saudi-led coalition in Yemen warned the Houthi group against using traditional boats to smuggle weapons, missiles and military equipment into the country, citing risks to civilians and regional security, Anadolu reports.
The coalition’s Joint Forces Command stressed in a statement that the practice threatened security in Yemen and beyond.
It urged boat owners not to cooperate with the Houthis in transporting weapons and military equipment to Yemen’s coast, warning that their lives and property could be put at risk.
The statement gave no details of specific smuggling operations or intercepted weapons shipments.
