Yemen’s Ansarullah resistance movement has called the Israeli regime “powerless” in its efforts to face up to Yemen’s anti-Israeli strikes in the occupied Palestinian territories and elsewhere, Press TV reported.
“Our operations seek to stop the genocide in Gaza. The Zionist regime is incapable of confronting us alone, and is, therefore, seeking help from those who support it,” Ansarullah’s Political Bureau member Mohammed al-Bukhaiti said.
Yemen’s Armed Forces have been conducting numerous such strikes since October 7, 2023, when the Israeli regime began taking the Gaza Strip under a United States-backed genocidal war that has so far claimed the lives of more than 45,200 Palestinians, mostly women and children.
The strikes have been targeting the American military assets that are deployed off Yemen’s coastline, strategic and sensitive targets across the occupied territories as well as the Israeli ships and the vessels heading towards the occupied territories.
Mohammed al-Bukhaiti’s remarks came after Yemen’s Defense Minister Mohammed Nasser al-Atifi warned Washington that the country was capable of sinking the US’s naval fleets, and was in possession of weapons that it had refused to deploy so far.
Yemen’s pro-Palestinian strikes have mounted enormous pressure on the Israeli regime by forcing the vessels trying to ship military hardware and other commodities to the occupied territories to take the longer route around Africa.
The operations have, among other things, effectively shut down the port of Eilat, which is located in the southernmost tip of the occupied territories.
