The management website of the Yemeni Ansar Allah movement revealed that its official X account has been suspended in violation of all the human rights charters and laws, as well as a profound breach of freedom of journalism and publication. 

Further commenting on the censorship attempt, the management said "Blocking the official Ansar Allah website account on the X platform reveals the double standards of the company operating the platform and the influence the Zionist lobby has on it."

It added that the decision to censor the movement exhibits the platform's unprofessionalism and incompetence, and proves that presence on the platform is unsafe, even if all codes of regulations are followed. 

This is only one step in the series of attempts to censor Ansar Allah amid its fight for Gaza, and against the American-British aggressors that continue to target and violate its sovereignty.

The war tactic of online censorship

Last week, the Yemeni news agency SABA reported on Sunday that German company Contabo had shut down Ansar Allah's official website on one of its servers for promoting "antisemitic" content. 

The official website of Ansar Allah stated in a report, obtained by SABA, that "the illegal measure, that violates the freedom of press, publications, and expression, as per international law and United Nations charters, is proof enough of the false banners that call for democracy and freedom of expression and opinion that the West is notorious for."

It also pointed out that the move aims at "misleading the public and veiling the Israeli occupation's genocide and crimes against the women and children of Gaza, as well as all of Palestine."

The report also considered the censorship of the website, the journalistic theft of its material, and combatting its spread on social platforms like Facebook and YouTube as a "form of aggression on Yemen for the country's virtuous solidarity with the oppressed people of Palestine."

The report also indicated that this signifies the Israeli lobby's failure to conceal the truth, and a "diabolical attempt to obscure and suppress the reality of Zionist and American crimes."
