Esmaeil Baghaei on Friday described the US attack as “a clear example” of the flagrant violation of the United Nations Charter and international law.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n “The US aggressions against Yemen, which are carried out as part of this country’s comprehensive support for the Zionist regime’s occupation and genocide in occupied Palestine, have made the US an accomplice and partner in Israel’s crimes in Palestine and the region,” Baghaei said.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n The spokesman warned that the continued US strikes on Yemen, the destruction of the country’s vital infrastructure and the killing of people in the impoverished country “not only encourage the Zionist regime to continue its crimes in Gaza and the West Bank, but also serve as a factor in exacerbating insecurity in the region.”<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n He also warned that the US aggression “poses a threat to international peace and security.”<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n Meanwhile, Baghaei expressed Iran’s solidarity with the Yemeni nation, calling on the international community to break their silence on the violations of international law and human rights by Washington.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n The statement came as the US conducted airstrikes on the western fuel port of Ras Isa on Thursday, killing at least 58 people and wounding 126 others.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n It was one of the deadliest since the US began its attacks on the country.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n Since October 2023, Yemeni forces have carried out scores of operations in support of the war-hit Gazans, striking targets throughout the occupied Palestinian territories, in addition to targeting Israeli ships or vessels heading toward ports in the occupied territories.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n In support of Israel, the US announced the formation of a maritime task force in the Red Sea in December 2023 to protect the passage of vessels bound for the Israeli-occupied territories.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n The Yemeni forces responded by ramping up their strikes against strategic and sensitive Israeli and US targets.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n The Yemeni forces paused their retaliatory strikes in support of the ceasefire that took effect in Gaza on January 19 before Israel broke it in March.<\/span><\/p>","content_source":"","content_url":"","content_columns":"0","content_date_start":"2025-04-18 16:59:45","content_date_finish":"2025-04-18 16:59:45","content_date_register":"2025-04-18 17:01:13","content_date_last_edit":"2025-04-18 17:01:13","content_show_img":"1","content_show_details":"0","content_show_related_img":"0","content_show_slider":"1","content_show_title_slider":"1","content_comment":"1","content_score":"0","content_recorded":"0","content_confirmed":"0","content_status":"1","content_kind":"0","old_id":"0","tag_id":null,"tag_word":null,"tag_service":null,"tag_total":null,"tag_soundex":null,"attach_token":"2005168614","attach_date_register":"2025-04-18 17:01:04","attach_id":"550739","attach_file_ext":"jpg","attach_file_header":"image\/jpeg","attach_img_type":"2","attach_img_width":"1280","attach_img_height":"853","attach_file_media":"1","attach_show_watermark":"1","score_average":null,"score_count":null,"score_date_last":null,"visit_count":"187","visit_date_last":"2025-05-08 22:04:39","attach_title":"Iran strongly condemns 'brutal' US airstrikes on Yemen\u2019s fuel port\r\n\r\n 2","node_title":"news,Top news","ot_node_left_right":"[{\"node_id\":122, \"left\":2, \"right\":53},{\"node_id\":143, \"left\":47, \"right\":48}]"}]]
