Russia’s representative to the United Nations, Vasily Nebenzia, stressed that Yemen’s exposure to air aggression in recent days and the Israeli targeting with American support of Sana’a and ports on the Red Sea are deliberate and condemnable escalation.
The Russian representative said in his speech during a session of the UN Security Council: A year has passed since the start of illegal military operations in the Red Sea by a group of countries led by the United States and Britain, and attacks on Yemeni territory do not solve problems but rather bring more destruction.
He described the military operations carried out by Israel and the US-led “coalition” forces in Yemen as “deliberate escalation”, noting that “it is difficult to describe the actions of Israel and the Anglo-Saxon coalition as anything other than deliberate escalation that led to civilian casualties in Yemen”.
He pointed out that the Russian Federation “calls on all parties involved in the aggression against Yemen to exercise restraint and refrain from escalatory steps”, as he described it, adding that “it is also necessary to take measures to protect ordinary Yemenis and humanitarian workers”, as he put it.
As a result of the inability of the Zionist enemy entity to confront the Yemeni strikes, the entity resorted to the Security Council in an attempt to prevent the Yemeni attacks supporting Gaza.
During the session, the impersonator of the Zionist enemy entity’s ambassador to the United Nations threatened Yemen with what he called “the miserable fate that Hamas and Hezbollah were subjected to” if the Yemeni armed forces continued to launch missiles at the entity.
Shortly after this threat, the United States of America and Britain launched an air aggression targeting the Hodeidah Governorate, and in return, the Yemeni armed forces responded with extensive military operations against the Zionist enemy entity, and the enemy’s media acknowledged the sound of sirens in most areas of occupied Palestine.
