Mohammed al-Bukhaiti, a senior member of the Ansarullah political bureau, firmly rejected Saudi attempts to deflect blame for recent airspace violations and the bombing of the Sana’a International Airport, Press TV reported. Recent escalation has seen Yemeni forces strike critical Saudi oil facilities and down hostile drones violating Yemen’s airspace. “Any violation of Yemen’s sovereignty will not exempt Saudi Arabia from punishment,” Bukhaiti said. "We have announced the operation to break the siege, and we are ready to advance in this confrontation to any level necessary," al-Shami declared. Al-Shami welcomed a recent initiative by Jordan to establish direct flights to Yemen, noting that Sana’a remains open to any other constructive initiatives aimed at easing the movement of Yemeni citizensMNA
