BBC: Saudi Arabia warns of 'necessary measures' over Yemen
Gulf Arab states will take "necessary measures" against Yemen's Houthi rebels if a peaceful solution cannot be found to the country's instability, Saudi Arabia's foreign minister has said.
Saud al-Faisal also condemned Iranian "interference" in Yemen.
The UN has warned that Yemen is on the edge of civil war, as the Shia Houthis attempt to tighten their control.
The group has been pushing further south from its northern stronghold, clashing with local armed elements.
This moves the Houthis closer to conflict with forces loyal to President Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi, who is based in the southern port city of Aden.
WNU Editor: This conflict is about to heat up .... and fast
