Iran’s FM Lauds Yemen’s Support for Gaza

Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir‌ Abdollahian lauded Yemen’s support for the Palestinian people amid exceptionally heightened Israeli aggression.

“Yemen’s support for the people of Gaza Strip and the occupied West Bank is admirable,” Amir Abdollahian said in a meeting with Yemeni Ambassador to Tehran Ibrahim Mohammed al-Dailami.

Amir Abdollahian visited the Yemeni Embassy in Tehran on Thursday to convey the Islamic Republic’s gratitude towards Sana’a for the support.

“We consider defending the people of Palestine and Gaza to be our duty, and will continue supporting Palestine as long as it is necessary,” the Yemeni envoy said.

“The decision by the [Yemeni] leaders in Sana’a towards targeting the Zionist regime’s interests in the occupied territories and at sea is in line with our strong belief in defending the people of Gaza,” he added.

Yemeni forces have staged several operations against the occupied territories since the beginning of the Israeli military campaign, including ballistic and cruise missile attacks, and have seized at least three Israeli ships traveling through Yemen’s territorial waters.

The forces have also staged at least two operations targeting the United States’ interests in protest at Washington’s unreserved military and political support for the Israeli war.

On Thursday, Yemen’s Armed Forces released a statement, pledging to renew their attacks against Israeli targets if the regime resumed its war on Gaza following an underway truce that is expected to expire later on Friday.
