The General Federation of Yemeni Workers’ Unions on Thursday condemned in the strongest terms the Israeli aggression on civilian facilities in the capital Sana’a and Hodeida province.
In a statement, the Federation considered the Zionist aggression’s targeting of power plants, ports and oil facilities a clear violation of international law and human rights, and a new confirmation of the criminal terrorist tendency of the Israeli enemy entity and its disregard for the lives and safety of civilians.
It stressed that the Zionist aggression is a continuation of its aggressive approach on civilian facilities and civilians in the Gaza Strip, Lebanon and Syria, noting that targeting civilian infrastructure is a deliberate attempt to disrupt the daily lives of citizens.
The union’s statement explained that the Zionist enemy’s targeting of the two power plants in the capital, Sana’a, led to the deprivation of thousands of families from electricity, while the attacks on the ports of Hodeidah and Salif and the Ras Issa oil facility resulted in the death and injury of a number of workers in those facilities.
The General Federation of Yemeni Workers’ Unions held the Israeli enemy fully responsible for this aggression, stressing that Yemen will not be intimidated by these attacks, and will continue to resist the Israeli aggression by all available means, and no aggression will deter it from its legitimate right to self-defense and protect the country’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
It reiterated Yemen’s continued support for the oppressed Palestinian people in Gaza and the West Bank until the end of the aggression, praising the qualitative operation carried out by the Yemeni armed forces in conjunction with the Israeli aggression, which targeted two military targets of the enemy in the occupied Jaffa area.
The statement called on all Yemeni people to stand as one in the face of the Zionist aggression, and to support the armed forces and security services to defend the homeland against the American-Israeli-British aggression and to continue to go out to the squares to express the unity of the position against the usurping entity.
The Yemeni Workers’ Union Federation also renewed its call to the Arab and international trade union federations, the concerned Arab and international organizations, as well as the Arab and Islamic countries, free countries, peoples and living movements to condemn the Israeli-Zionist crimes supported by America and Britain.
