According to Al-Mayadeen, Qahoum pointed to what he called the insistence of the US and the UK on their continued aggression, a reference to recent aerial attacks launched on the Yemeni soil.
Washington and London and already been deplored for misusing a UN security council resolution 2722 that was approved to protect the Red Sea not to launch strikes on any country.
The Yemeni army has for long accused the United States and some of its western allies of trying to protect Israel’s maritime interest while maintaining silence on the regime’s genocide in the Gaza Strip.
The Yemeni army, in support of the resistance of the Palestinian nation has targeted several Israeli ships or ships bound for the occupied territories in the Red Sea and the Bab al-Mandeb Strait. It has vowed to keep attacking those ships unless the Zionist regime stops its deadly aggression against the Palestinians and ends its blockade on the Gaza Strip.
The Yemeni army has repeatedly said that all ships except Israelis are free to said through the Red Sea and the Bab al-Mandeb Strait.
Recently, the Yemeni armed forces have also targeted American and British vessels in the Red Sea in response to the two countries’ strikes on Yemen in breach of its sovereignty.
