According to Iran's deputy foreign minister Ali Bagheri Kani on Saturday, US claims that Iran is behind attacks on Israeli ships are false.

The United States believes that Iran's Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) is actively playing a part in the missile and drone strikes carried out against "Israel" and targeting shipping in the Red Sea, Deputy National Security Adviser Jon Finer said early this month. 

The White House revealed on Friday what they claim is proof that Iran provided drones, missiles, and tactical information to Ansar Allah. 

According to Kani, "The resistance has its own tools... and acts in accordance with its own decisions and capabilities."

He told Mehr news that the fact that Israeli and US powers are suffering due to the strikes should "in no way call into question the reality of the strength of the resistance in the region."

Earlier on Saturday, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian stated that Washington has previously requested that Iran advise Ansar Allah not to act against US and Israeli interests in the region.

Goal of maritime coalition to protect "Israel"

Yemen's Supreme Political Council member, Mohammad Ali al-Houthi, confirmed in a statement to Al Mayadeen Friday that the goal of the maritime coalition was intended to protect "Israel" and not international navigation.

The US established the coalition under the pretext of securing international trade routes from the attacks of the Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF). This comes after the YAF conducted multiple operations in the Red Sea targeting Israeli-owned vessels and ships heading to Israeli ports, passing through the Arabian Sea or the Red Sea.

Al-Houthi stressed that the discourse and statements of the Yemeni Armed Forces confirm that international navigation is safe for everyone, except for Israeli ships or those bound to the ports of the Israeli occupation.

The official also indicated, in his statement, that the US supports the massacres in the Gaza Strip, demanding that those who feel insecure in the Red Sea and seek security must stop the Israeli massacres.

The US expects the naval coalition, it recently spearheaded, to grow as it continues to consult with partners, US Department of State Press Secretary Pat Ryder stated on Thursday.

"In the days ahead, the United States will continue to consult closely with our allies and partners who share the fundamental principle of freedom of navigation, and we expect to see the coalition continue to grow," Ryder said during a press briefing.
