Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said Tuesday that Yemenis would make those attacking their country regret their actions as a Saudi-led coalition pounded the rebel-held capital with heavy air strikes. “The people of Yemen will make their aggressors regret their actions,” Rouhani said in a televised speech. In his speech, Rouhani also condemned signs that some Muslim countries were improving ties with Israel in order to counter Iran’s growing influence. “I have no doubt that the Muslims of the world will not let this sinister plot bear fruit,” Rouhani added. Israel’s armed forces chief said last month that his country and Saudi Arabia were in “total agreement” that Iran was the greatest threat to the Middle East.
