--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yemen's Houthi movement announced Monday it is escalating its actions in
support of Palestinians, and said it would impose a "naval blockade" on
Israel's Port of Haifa.

Yahya Sarea: "The armed forces will not hesitate, with Allah's help, to
take the necessary additional measures in support of our oppressed
Palestinian people and their esteemed resistance."
