SANAA, Yemen — When Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree threatened to target the United Arab Emirates, questions were raised about the seriousness of carrying out such a threat. This was the second such threat in two days: Houthi spokesman Mohammed Abdulsalam had made another threat Sept. 17, saying, "The UAE deserves to be targeted at this time more than ever before."
Saree said in a televised speech Sept. 18, amid tension following the attacks on Saudi oil processing facilities days earlier, “We have dozens of targets within our range in the UAE; some are in Abu Dhabi and can be attacked at any time.”
