The Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated on Sunday that the Israeli aggression against the Haziz power station is a dangerous escalation that threatens regional peace and security.
In an urgent letter to UN Secretary-General António Guterres, Security Council President Eloy Alfaro de Alba, High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Türk, and President of the UN Human Rights Council Jürg Lauber, Minister Gamal Amer described the attack as a flagrant and serious violation of international law and the United Nations Charter.
Amer strongly condemned the military aggression and terrorist act committed by “Israel” against the Haziz power station, a vital civilian facility in Sana’a.
He explained that targeting the station has deprived millions of civilians in the capital and surrounding areas of electricity, a service essential for operating hospitals, water pumps, and other critical facilities.
The Minister asserted that this Israeli aggression is a failed attempt to pressure Sana’a into changing its position and halting its military support for the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.
He concluded with a warning: “Any hesitation or silence from the international community regarding this heinous crime will be interpreted as a green light for “Israel” to persist in its terrorism.”
Such complicity, he argued, undermines the credibility of the international system, threatens to escalate tensions in the Red Sea, and leaves Yemen’s response open to all options—with repercussions that could affect the entire international community.
