Sharjah 24 – Reuters: Strikes by the US and British militaries against Houthi forces in Yemen were "defensive, and designed to preserve freedom of navigation in one of the world’s most vital waterways", a NATO spokesperson said on Friday.
"Houthi forces are supported, supplied and equipped by Iran. So Tehran has a special responsibility to rein in its proxies", the spokesperson added.
