AFP, 14 December 2017 – US envoy to the United Nations Nikki Haley said on Thursday at a press conference befor the Security Council in New York that Iran’s behavior in the Middle East is getting worse, fanning flames of conflict.

Haley confirmed that the US has evidence that the missile fired by Houthi militia targeting a civilian airport in Riyadh was made in Iran.

“It was made in Iran then sent to Houthi militants in Yemen,” Haley said of the missile.

“From there it was fired at a civilian airport with the potential to kill hundreds of innocent civilians in Saudi Arabia,” she added.

Washington seeks to form an international coalition to confront the threat of Iran, Haley stated.
