This political organization described the attack as “shameless” and “vile behavior” and condemned it, adding: “This attack exposes the region to real dangers, the consequences of which are on the shoulders of the Americans, the British and the Zionists.”
The Supreme Political Council of Yemen also emphasized: “Yemen’s response is completely legal within the framework of the sacred defense of Yemen and its sovereignty, independence and freedom, and America and England should not think that they have failed to punish our hero’s armed forces, and the aggressors’ happiness will not last long.”
This high Yemeni political body also said that all American and British interests for the Yemeni armed forces, in response to their aggression against Yemen, are legitimate goals and their presence in the Red Sea and Bab al-Mandab has no justification and is a threat to the free flow of navigation.
In response to the operations of the Yemeni army in the Red Sea against Israeli ships and American forces, the United States and the United Kingdom targeted more than 12 places in Yemen with planes, ships and submarines. Immediately after this attack, Yemen’s Ansarullah forces announced that they are firing ballistic missiles at enemy positions in the Red Sea and Bab al-Mandab.
