According to the Al-Masirah TV channel, the minister emphasized the need to continue the Yemeni Armed Forces’ military operations against ships affiliated with the US, the UK, and the Israeli regime.
"We will use our might to set new rules of war, for which the Americans, the British, the Zionists, and their followers will pay a heavy price," al-Atifi noted.
He also explained that the Yemenis are not warmongers and aggressors, but the brutal crimes committed by the Israeli regime in Gaza prompted freedom-loving nations such as the Yemeni people to declare their stance.
Yemen’s decision to enter the battle against the occupying regime and besiege it in waterways is a governmental, national, Islamic and humanitarian choice, he asserted.
The Yemeni minister further said that Yemen will keep on hindering the sailing of Israeli-linked ships through the Red Sea and the Bab al-Mandab Strait, adding that the operation against US-UK vessels will not come to an end until the cessation of war and siege imposed on Gaza.
