The Yemeni delegation stressed that the Red Sea operations do not represent a threat to international navigation or target anyone, but they are operations linked to supporting the Palestinian people.

The Yemeni army has targeted dozens o Israeli ships or ships bound for the occupied territories in the Red Sea and the Bab al-Mandab strait in the past months in support of the Palestinian nation in the Gaza Strip.
