Houthi: US complicit in all Israeli crimes against Palestinians in Gaza

Leader of Yemen’s Ansarullah resistance movement Abdul-Malik al-Houthi speaks in a televised speech broadcast live from the Yemeni capital city of Sana'a on April 25, 2024.

The leader of Yemen’s Ansarullah resistance movement has held the US accountable for aiding and abetting the Zionist regime in the atrocities against Gaza, saying Washington is managing the crimes ranging from siege and starvation to killing and destruction.

Speaking during a televised speech broadcast live from the Yemeni capital city of Sana’a on Thursday, Abdul-Malik al-Houthi stated that the occupying Israeli regime continues to perpetrate all kinds of crimes against the Palestinian population of Gaza, and has no reservation about kidnapping and murder of Palestinians.

“The Zionist enemy is employing new techniques to slay the Palestinian nation, including emitting cries and requests for help through the speakers installed on their drones. Once people rush to the source of the sound for help, Israeli aircraft target and kill them in cold blood.

“Exhumation and theft of body parts of patients, and murder of medical staff are also among other crimes of the Zionist army during the ongoing war against Gaza,” Houthi stated.

The Ansarullah chief stated that Israel has turned hospitals in Gaza into mass graves, emphasizing whatever the Zionist enemy does is under the full financial and military support of Americans. 

“Americans are putting pressure on Qatar as a mediating country to adopt a view aligned with the United States and Israel against the Hamas movement. The US does not respect international law, human rights or any subjects it brags about, such as democracy and freedom of opinion and expression,” he pointed out.

Houthi underscored that the US and its Western allies don’t want formation of a sovereign independent Palestinian state.

He also abhorred the US police’s violent clampdown on university students and professors attending demonstrations in support of Palestine, asserting that US officials only accept voices that call for extermination of Gazans.

Elsewhere in his remarks, the Ansarullah leader referred to rocket and missile attacks by Palestinian resistance forces against the Israeli-occupied territories, stating that the Zionist enemy has suffered huge losses in terms of hardware and military personnel in Gaza.

“Israel's planned attacks against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip are actually a war against the entire community living in the region. The enemy targets the Palestinian nation every day through all the means of mass killing, starvation and spread of infectious diseases. We have not heard of such a significant level of heinous crimes anywhere in the world,” Houthi highlighted.

He also pointed to the mass evacuation of Israeli settlers from areas along the border with the Gaza Strip, stating that the fact that half of settler are thinking about migration and departure from the occupied territories indicates an existential crisis and that they view themselves as usurpers and occupiers.

“The reverse migration of Zionists is among the strategic outcomes of the steadfastness and resilience of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip,” the Ansarullah chief said.

Houthi also pointed to extensive operations by the Lebanese Hezbollah resistance movement against Israeli military positions in the northern side of the 1948 occupied territories, stressing that the strikes are precise and effective and have prompted Israeli military figures to acknowledge the difficulty in confronting Hezbollah.

Commenting on maritime operations by Yemeni naval forces against Israeli-affiliated merchant vessels, the Ansarullah leader stated that the forces are looking to expand offensives in the Indian Ocean in such a way that it would catch Americans, Britons and Israelis by surprise.

“Over the 202 days of the Gaza war, we have targeted 102 ships. On average, we have targeted an Israeli-linked ship every two days.”

US and British militaries have failed to deal with Yemeni missile and drone strikes despite continuous and strict monitoring as to movement of ships, Houthi said.

Yemeni attacks, he added, have rendered the Israeli Port of Eilat on the Red Sea out of service, and incurred substantial losses on the regime.

“Yemeni attacks have to 40% decrease in Israeli imports, and reduced the Zionist regime’s exports by at least 22%. The maritime operations have also lowered the traffic of US ships though the Red Sea by 80%.

“As long as the siege and aggression against Gaza continues, our operations in the Red Sea will continue. We won’t downgrade our naval operations, but rather intend to expand our operations in the Indian Ocean,” Houthi stated.
