"The operations from the Yemeni front to support the Palestinian people with missiles and drones towards the Israeli enemy are continuing," Abdulmalik Al-Houthi said on the rebels' Al-Masirah TV channel.

Yemen's Houthi rebels, part of Iran's "axis of resistance" against Israel and the United States, have periodically fired drones and missiles at Israel since the outbreak of the Israeli war on Gaza.

The Houthis have also launched a harassment campaign against Israel-linked shipping in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden, aiming to disrupt the trade route and pressure Israel to end its Gaza war.

"I hope everyone in the army and among the people is aware of our responsibility, and with God's help will do more... against the Israeli enemy," Houthi said.

"We at the Yemeni front are doing our utmost to support the Palestinian people," he added.

Israel's war on Gaza has killed more than 44,000 people, mostly women and children, according to the territory's health ministry—figures the UN considers reliable.

The war has also injured more than 100,000 people and displaced 1.9 million, or 85 percent of Gaza's population.
