Riyadh and its allies accuse the Houthis of receiving financial and arms support from Iran. The Islamic Republic rejects the accusations.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe Saudi-led coalition went further in its Sunday statement, claiming that the Houthis were under Iran\u2019s \u201cdirect command.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe chief commander of Iran&#8217;s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Major General Mohammad Ali Jafari on Sunday dismissed as \u201cbaseless\u201d the allegations leveled by US President Donald Trump about the Islamic Republic\u2019s provision of missiles to Yemeni forces.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tHe said that Iran had no means of transferring missiles to Yemen, noting that missiles used by Yemeni forces belonged to themselves and they had only increased their range.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>madaresharghi Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said on Monday that Saudi Arabia was blaming Iran for the consequences of its own \u201cwars of aggression\u201d after his Saudi counterpart accused Tehran of threatening regional security. \u201cKSA (Saudi Arabia) is engaged in wars of aggression, regional bullying, destabilizing behavior (and) risky provocations.
