Abdul-Salam cautioned the regional countries about the false claims being propagated by the US administration against Yemen’s actions in the Red Sea.
“We target Israeli ships or ships heading to ports in occupied Palestine in support of the Palestinian nation and in order to put pressure on the apartheid Zionist regime to end its attacks on Gaza”, Abdul-Salam emphasized on his official telegram page.
He underlined that America should also stop running away from its responsibility for stopping Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza.
“We once again make it clear that Yemen adheres to the principle of self-defense, will never allow the violation of our country's sovereignty and will never turn a blind eye to any aggression against Yemen”, the Ansarullah spokesman said with reference to a series aerial attacks carried by the US and Britain on Yemen under the pretext of the Arab country’s actions in the Red Sea.
He said that the US is trying to divert public opinion from the current events in the Red Sea, adding that Yemen will keep targeting Israeli ships or other vessels heading to occupied Palestinian ports.
Ansarullah has categorically censured the Israeli aggression against the besieged territory that has claimed tens of thousands of innocent lives and "destroyed everything in Gaza.”
During the past weeks, the Yemeni army has targeted over two dozen Israeli-bound commercial vessels and oil tankers in the Red Sea and the Bab al-Mandab strait in support of the Palestinians in Gaza. The Yemeni army has already defied US threats, saying such attack will continue as long as the Zionist regime keeps spilling the blood of the Palestinians.
