The head of the Sanaa negotiating delegation and spokesperson for the Ansar Allah movement, Mohammad Abdul Salam, affirmed that the continual American-British aggression on Yemen will not achieve the perpetrators' goals, but rather only increase the challenges they face in the region.

In a Sunday post on X, Abdul Salam said that Yemen's decision to champion and support Gaza is firm, principled, and will not be affected by any attack.

استمرار العدوان الأمريكي البريطاني على بلدنا لن يحقق للمعتدين أي هدف، بل يزيد من مآزقهم ومشاكلهم على مستوى المنطقة، وقرار اليمن بمساندة غزة ثابت ومبدئي ولن يتأثر بأي إعتداء .
وبشأن القدرات اليمنية العسكرية نحب أن نؤكد أنها ليس من السهل تدميرها وقد أعيد بناؤها في ظل سنوات حرب…

Regarding Yemen's military capabilities, Abdul Salam confirmed that destroying them is a difficult job, as they had been rebuilt during the years of brutal war.

He called on Washington and London to adhere to the international call demanding the immediate cessation of Israeli aggression and the lifting of the siege on Gaza, as well as refraining from protecting the Israeli occupation at the expense of the Palestinian people, rather than inciting escalations and igniting a new war front.

Abdul Salam warned that the raids on Yemen, Iraq, and Syria, "would only provoke the people and "increase their hatred for the American colonial presence in the region."

US, UK responsible for all conflicts in the region

This comes amid a series of renewed strikes and raids that targeted Yemen.

Mohammed Ali al-Houthi, a member of Yemen's Supreme Political Council, asserted that the United States is responsible for stirring up wars and spreading fear among people, and in collaboration with the British, it acts as the aggressor against nations.

During an armed march held for mobilization graduates, al-Houthi emphasized that the Americans and the British use attacks, strikes, provocations, and weapon recklessness to achieve a nefarious objective, which is to sustain war and siege against the people of Gaza.

In contrast, Yemen is mobilizing its forces for the cause of peace in Gaza and all of Palestine, he further stressed.
