Red Sea Attacks for Gaza War
On Tuesday, a spokesperson for Yemen’s Ansarullah stated that the group’s operations in the Red Sea, which have involved missiles and drones targeting international shipping, would only cease when Israeli aggression against Gaza ends and the siege is lifted.
Mohammed Abdulsalam, when asked if attacks on ships would stop with a Gaza ceasefire deal, indicated that the situation would be reviewed if the siege ended and humanitarian aid could freely enter Gaza.
In Sanaa, Yemen’s Defense Minister had declared that the era of hegemonic influence over international waters is over, reiterating that operations will continue until the Israeli war on Gaza ends.
Major General Mohammed al-Atifi, speaking at a graduation ceremony of Yemeni cadets in Hodeidah, stated, “The US, London, and Israel must recognize that controlling geography and claiming guardianship over the seas is now a rejected and unwelcome approach.”
He vowed, “As long as the atrocities by the Zionists continue in Gaza, we will persist in our operations against the usurping entity. Washington has supported and enabled the Zionist entity in its genocidal war against our Palestinian brothers and sisters.”
Since November 19 of the previous year, the Yemeni armed forces have been conducting operations against ships associated with the Israeli occupation or heading to its ports in solidarity with the Gaza Strip. Gaza has been under Zionist aggression for over four months, supported by the United States and Western nations.
