US whitewashing Israeli crimes, justifying genocide: Sayyed al-Houthi

"Israel" is attempting to carry out the plans of its "criminal generals and bloodthirsty officers" to empty northern Gaza of its population, pointed out the leader of the Yemeni Ansar Allah movement, Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, on Thursday.

In his weekly speech, Sayyed al-Houthi said "Israel" seeks to forcibly displace the Palestinian people from the northern Gaza Strip by committing the most heinous crimes, adding that the occupation aims to end all medical services in northern Gaza by targeting hospitals and medical staff.

He also indicated that the Israeli crimes against Palestinian detainees and captives are "among the most atrocious, perhaps unparalleled in all prisons."

Regarding the Yemeni support front for Gaza, Sayyed al-Houthi highlighted that among the unique naval operations carried out by the Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF) this week was the targeting of four ships, east of Socotra, in the easternmost part of the Arabian Sea.

He emphasized the continuation of Yemen’s maritime operations "to hunt vessels linked to the Israeli, American, and British enemies."

The Ansar Allah leader revealed that the YAF are working to strengthen the targeting routes for ships linked to the enemy and to track the new paths to which their ships flee in the ocean.

He explained that "Israel" and its associates are attempting to escape with their ships toward the Indian Ocean due to its vast expanse.

According to the Yemeni leader, the total number of targeted ships linked to the Israeli, American, and British enemies has reached 202. He further confirmed that this week, the YAF carried out operations using 13 ballistic and cruise missiles and drones.

Touching on the ongoing US aggression on Yemen, Sayyed al-Houthi noted that US forces conduct weekly airstrikes and continue to exert political and economic pressure on the country.

However, the leader made it clear that "no one will be able to stop our operations until the aggression halts, the siege on Gaza is lifted, and the aggression on Lebanon ends."

The fronts in Gaza and Lebanon are united as two fronts for a single cause, he pointed out, reiterating that "Israel" must end its aggression.

The Ansar Allah leader pointed to the mobilization within the movement, revealing that 519,029 Yemenis have completed military training and "we hope to reach a million," highlighting that the various mobilization activities, including exercises, military parades, and other events, have reached a total of 2,913.

He also criticized some Arab countries, stating, "In confronting the criminal actions and the Zionist project targeting our Ummah, it is deeply shameful and a serious shortcoming for any Arab country to remain silent."

"Any support for the Zionists, even if only on a media level, is a show of allegiance to them," he underlined.
