Bloomberg revealed that the United States informed Saudi Arabia of the impossibility of moving forward with the roadmap’ and peace agreement within Yemen until the military operations of the Yemeni Armed Forces in the Red Sea cease.
The newspaper quoted a US State Department official as saying, “a United Nations-led plan committed to in December can’t go ahead” unless Yemeni attacks in the Red Sea cease. These attacks, which began in November, aim to pressure Israel to end its war in Gaza.
The newspaper also affirmed that American orders and directives were behind the decisions announced by the Central Bank in Aden, controlled by the Saudi-backed government, against banks operating in areas controlled by the Supreme Political Council, cutting off their access to foreign currency.
American and British forces have been conducting various offensives against Yemen as a means to halt its pro-Palestinian operations. Recently, American and British warplanes and US warships targeted the western Yemeni provinces of Sana’a, al-Hudaydah, and Ta’izz, killing at least 16 people and wounding more than 40 others.
Since last October, when the Israeli regime launched the war on Gaza, the Yemeni forces have carried out numerous similar pro-Palestinian operations. The conflict has resulted in at least 36,654 Palestinian deaths, most of them women and children, and injured another 83,309 individuals. More than 1.7 million people have been internally displaced during the brutal military onslaught.
