The Yemeni Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a series of strongly worded statements Saturday, condemning Israel’s ongoing military actions in Gaza and calling for immediate international and regional intervention.
The ministry warned of the “Zionist enemy’s persistence in committing genocide crimes against the Palestinian people in Gaza,” holding Israel accountable for its escalating violence and systematic destruction.
In the statement, the ministry declared that Israel’s actions “undermine the international order, international laws, and global security and peace.” It accused the Israeli government of disregarding legal and humanitarian norms with its continued assault on Gaza.
Yemen also condemned Israel’s reported targeting of the Freedom Flotilla vessel carrying humanitarian aid to the besieged Gaza Strip. The ministry described the attack as a blatant violation of maritime law and an effort to maintain the blockade on the Palestinian territory.
The Foreign Ministry further accused the United States of being “a partner of the Zionist enemy in all the crimes committed against the Palestinian people,” criticizing Washington for its political and military support of Israel.
Finally, Yemen urged Arab and Islamic nations to “wake up and force the enemy to end its aggression and siege on Gaza.” The statement emphasized the need for collective action to stop the violence and hold Israel accountable.
