The Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) movement strongly condemned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s announcement of renewed military operations in Gaza, calling it a continuation of massacres and genocide against the Palestinian people.
"The declaration of renewed aggression is a deliberate act to derail all efforts to reach a ceasefire," PIJ stated. The movement emphasized that the escalation would not grant the Israeli occupation superiority over the Resistance, whether on the battlefield or in negotiations.
PIJ further asserted that Netanyahu and his "bloodthirsty" government, would not escape their domestic crises through this new wave of attacks. Instead, the aggression would only weaken them further and add to their failures.
"What Netanyahu and his army have failed to achieve through 15 months of relentless crimes, they will fail to achieve once again, thanks to the resilience of our people and their resistance," the statement concluded.
PFLP condemns Israeli aggression
The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) condemned the Israeli occupation's renewed aggression against Gaza, accusing it of deliberately targeting civilians and residential areas.
"The enemy has committed its crimes and massacres against our people in Gaza with premeditated intent, deliberately striking homes and civilians," the PFLP stated.
The group reiterated its commitment to resistance, emphasizing that the Israeli regime's actions would not break the resolve of the Palestinian people.
The Israeli occupation forces launched intense airstrikes across the Gaza Strip early Tuesday, targeting residential areas, refugee camps, and public infrastructure, following the official collapse of the ceasefire halting aggression on the Palestinian territory.
Palestinian medical sources reported at least 205 martyrs, most of whom were children, and hundreds of others wounded in the bombardment.
Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Gaza reported that dozens of simultaneous Israeli airstrikes struck various locations in Gaza within a span of fewer than ten minutes. Reports indicate that Israeli missiles hit homes, mosques, schools, and displacement shelters, particularly in Khan Younis and Rafah.
Ansar Allah reaffirms support for Gaza
The political bureau of Yemen’s Ansar Allah movement denounced the renewed Israeli assault on Gaza, calling it a "criminal escalation and a continuation of horrific massacres."
"The Israeli escalation persists while mediating and guarantor nations of the ceasefire agreement remain incapable of restraining the Zionists’ arrogance and defiance," the statement read.
Ansar Allah reiterated Yemen’s unwavering military support for Gaza, vowing continued escalation against Israeli and US interests in the region until the aggression ends and the siege on Gaza is lifted.
Yemeni government, leadership reaffirm support for Gaza
The Yemeni government in Sanaa condemned the Israeli occupation's renewed military operations in Gaza, calling them "the ugliest forms of Zionist terrorism and crimes against the Palestinian people, fully backed by global arrogance."
"The resumption of military operations is clear proof of the Zionist entity’s blatant disregard for all international and humanitarian laws," the government stated, describing the targeting of civilians, homes, and hospitals, as well as the blockade on humanitarian aid, as war crimes that "will not be forgotten over time."
Reaffirming Yemen’s steadfast support for the Palestinian cause, the government in Sanaa called on all Arab and Islamic nations to act urgently in defense of Gaza.
Meanwhile, Yemen’s Supreme Political Council also condemned the renewed Israeli aggression, vowing to continue supporting Gaza. "Yemen will maintain its backing for Gaza and escalate confrontations, in line with the directives of our leader, Abdul-Malik al-Houthi," the council declared.
Holding the Israeli occupation and the US responsible for militarizing regional waters, the council warned of potential consequences, stating, "We hold the Zionist and American enemies accountable for the re-militarization of the seas and all its repercussions, no matter how severe."
Yemen continues operations against US
The Yemeni Armed Forces announced Tuesday that the US aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman had been targeted in the northern Red Sea with two cruise missiles and two drones.
American aircraft carrier USS Harry Truman "was targeted in the northern Red Sea with two cruise missiles and two drones," Saree said, adding, "A US destroyer was attacked with a cruise missile and four drones."
Saree pointed out that the aforementioned targeting was "the third in the past 48 hours, and the enemy was struck by a state of confusion, which prompted many of its warships to retreat towards the northern Red Sea region, and an air attack that was being prepared against our country was thwarted."
The American aggressor bears all the consequences of militarizing the Red Sea and expanding the circle of confrontation by continuing to launch aggression against Yemen, which negatively impacts international shipping traffic.
