Houthis Ask Arab League to Stop Saudi Aggression

The Houthi rebels in Yemen have called on the Arab League to stop the Saudis' "unjust aggression" against the Yemeni people, affirming that they have no relationship with Iran.

Saudi Arabia became involved in the war with the Houthis on November 3, after one of its border guards was killed by them.
