Yemen will not suffice with its initial response to the American aggression on promising further action, Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi said in a speech delivered on Thursday.

Addressing ongoing regional developments and US mobilization in the Red Sea, Sayyed al-Houthi, the leader of the Yemeni Ansar Allah movement, said that the country will exert all efforts to confront the US aggression on Yemen, adding that no American violation will be left with no response.

Just before the new year, the US Navy attacked three speedboats of the YAF's Navy which led to the martyrdom of 10 members of the Yemeni Navy. The US attack came in line with Washignton's bid to protect vessels sailing through the Arabian and Red Sea toward Israeli ports in occupied Palestine.

Sayyed al-Houthi said that Yemen's decision to deny such vessels passage through the Red Sea is a proactive position that has been costly to the Israeli enemy.

Do not be drawn in by the US

On this point, the Yemeni leader warned countries around the world from joining in on the US-led Naval coalition and "Operation Prosperity Guardian". He urged nations to safeguard themselves and not be drawn into the US-led coalition while addressing Arab and Islamic nations specifically.

"Let the Americans and the British implicate themselves alone," Sayyed al-Houthi stated.

Singling out Bahrain, the leader lambasted its government's participation in the US-led coalition, stressing that such actions have proved that its ruling family are "slaves" to "Zionism," pointing to their embarrassing record in this regard. However, he emphasized that such actions do not represent the oppressed Bahraini people.

The leader called on all people to intensify boycotting campaigns against Israeli and American goods. Addressing people in the Gulf region, Sayyed al-Houthi called on them to stop consuming such goods despite the fact their governments have made deliberate efforts to heavily import them.

Further detailing the drawbacks of allying with the US, the leader pointed to previous dealings between Riyadh and Washington, in which the former transferred hundreds of billions of dollars to the

'Israel' excels in committing atrocities

Regarding the crimes of the Israeli occupation, Sayyed al-Houthi stated that the Israeli entity, over the course of 75 years, excelled in committing the worst atrocities against the Palestinian people. He added that targeting one of the holiest Islamic sanctities, the al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied al-Quds comes in the context of Israeli hostility towards our Islam and the Ummah, adding that the practices of settlers who have invaded the courtyards of the mosque are "abhorrent."

Sayyed al-Houthi condemned the ongoing Israeli aggression against the Gaza Strip for the past 97 days, noting the scale of the oppression endured by the Palestinian people for decades, as the occupation continues to impose a severe blockade on the Palestinian population, in the Gaza Strip.
 
On Sanaa's support to Palestine, the leader revealed that thousands of Yemenis have joined popular mobilization forces in most provinces. At the same time, he pointed to the mass protests held in the al-Sabeen Square in Sanaa, which continue to amass greater numbers, especially after the US launched its attack on the Yemeni Navy.

In this context, Sayyed al-Houthi called for a "million-man march" on Friday in al-Sabeen Square and other provinces, replicating what has become a normal weekly occurrence in Yemen.
