According to him, the Russian Federation maintains regular contacts with the Houthis.
“They, of course, assure us that they cannot have any plans about our interests, our courts,” the diplomat said.
Yemen’s Houthis regularly attack foreign ships, particularly American ones, in the Red Sea as part of the confrontation with Israel, which is waging military operations in Palestine.
Members of the group also attacked four undersea cables connecting Europe and Asia, causing disruptions to Internet communications.
Media outlets wrote that demand for Russian rail freight increased sharply after the Yemeni Houthis attacked ships in the Red Sea.
