Mohammad Ali al-Houthi, a member of Yemen's Supreme Political Council, emphasized that delivering aid to Gaza is more important than US sanctions and designations, which he labeled as "illegitimate."

His remarks followed the US government's decision to impose sanctions on senior members of the Yemeni Ansar Allah movement.

Furthermore, the top Yemeni figure condemned the US for obstructing aid and undermining peace agreements, linking these actions to broader geopolitical tensions in the region.

In a powerful statement on the X platform, al-Houthi proclaimed, "Preventing the entry of materials into Gaza and sabotaging peace agreements is American terrorism, which stands in direct contrast to our legitimate and faith-driven support for Gaza through naval operations in the Red Sea to confront the genocide and terrorism of America and its temporary entity [Israel] in Gaza."

The United States imposed sanctions on seven high-ranking members of the Ansar Allah movement on Wednesday, according to the Treasury Department. 

Abdulwali Abdoh Hasan Al-Jabri and his company, Al-Jabri General Trading and Investment Co., were designated for allegedly recruiting Yemenis "to fight in Ukraine on behalf of Russia and raising funds to support Houthi military activities."

"The U.S. government is committed to holding the Houthis accountable for acquiring weapons and weapons components from suppliers in Russia, China, and Iran to threaten Red Sea security," State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce stated.

On Tuesday, the State Department also confirmed the implementation of the designation of the "Houthi movement as a foreign terrorist organization," a decision that President Donald Trump had called for earlier this year.

This move, however, has sparked concerns that it could destabilize regional security further and exacerbate Yemen’s humanitarian crisis.
