The American British aggression on Yemen violates all international laws and is "unjustified", the leader of the Ansar Allah Movement's Supreme Political Council, Mahdi al-Mashat emphasized on Friday.

Al-Mashat stressed that the United States and the United Kingdom would "pay a heavy price" for the attack which encompassed 73 strikes on various Yemeni Governates, including the capital Sanaa.

The leader's remarks came amid a "million-man march" held in Sanaa's al-Sabeen Square, in which the Yemeni people took to the streets to proclaim their support for any decisions taken by the Supreme Council, in response to the US-UK-led aggression.

Furthermore, the head of the Council said that the aggression would not dissuade Yemen from its steadfast position to support Palestine, adding that Yemenis will continue to block ships heading to Israeli-occupied ports or Israeil-owned ships from sailing through the Arabian Sea and the Red Sea.

"We say to our brothers in Palestine and our people in Gaza that our blood is not more precious than yours, and we are at peace with our conscience knowing that we are actively participating with you. Palestine is not alone in facing bombardment, and we affirm that from now on, Palestine will not be in the battle alone. We will prove to the American and British forces that Yemen is the graveyard of invaders," the leader of the Supreme Council underlined.
 
Moreover, a member of the Political Council, Mohammed Ali al-Houthi, said that the Yemeni people will continue to support and back the Palestinian people. Commenting on increased insurance rates of maritime trade, the official said that the Americans are the ones working to raise these prices, as operations would be ceased if goods and supplies enter the besieged Gaza Strip.

The Council had previously released a statement, outlining the Sanaa government's position on recent dangerous developments, linked to Thursday's aggression on the country.

"All American and British interests have become legitimate targets for the Yemeni Armed Forces in response to their direct and announced aggression against the Yemeni Republic," the Supreme Political Council warned. 

"The aggression on Yemen is an extension of the treacherous American targeting of the Yemeni Naval Forces and the American-British-Zionist aggression on the people of Gaza. The American-British aggression is a real threat to international peace and security, putting the region at grave stakes," the statement read.

"We affirm the commitment of the Yemeni Republic to what was declared at the beginning of its naval operation to end the blockade, stop the aggression, end the genocidal war on Gaza, and allow the entry of food, medicine, fuel, and all means of life."
