The head of the Yemeni Supreme Revolutionary Committee and a member of Ansarullah’s political bureau reacted to the Security Council’s move that extended the arms embargo against the movement.
Faraan: The United Nations Security Council agreed to extend arms bans against Ansar al-Yamin on Monday this week. According to Reuters, the Security Council adopted a resolution in the United Arab Emirates calling for the extension of the arms embargo imposed on a number of Ansar al-Islam leaders to the entire group.
The head of the Yemeni Supreme Revolutionary Committee, Mohammed Ali al-Houthi, wrote on Twitter in response to the issue. He stated: “If the goal is justice, not property, the deliberate targeting of Yemen by the US-Saudi-Emirati aggressor coalition and war crimes would have been a criterion for banning weapons.”
He continued, “After making sure that their weapons are bought in the Persian Gulf, the Americans, the British and other countries will test these weapons in attacking Yemen and test their effectiveness in killing Yemeni children. Just in the same manner as we see in Palestine where the Palestinians are disarmed and arms given to a regime that commits war crimes.”
Al-Houthi said: “The Republic of Yemen now has a new weapon that it did not have before, and this, thank God, has been achieved through the hard work and courage of the Yemeni jihadist and defeating the American-British-Saudi-UAE coalition and its military allies.”
Mohammad al-Bakhiti, a member of Ansar al-Islam’s political bureau, said the Security Council’s decision to extend arms embargoes against Yemen and deprive it of its right to defend itself, along with the United States, Britain, France, Russia and China, underscores the world’s need for a new world order. A system based on justice.
Al-Bakhiti continued: “We say to the countries that voted in favor of this resolution that you and your oppressive decisions are under our feet because we rely only on God.”
UN experts describe Yemen as the scene of the world’s greatest humanitarian crisis. More than 75% of the Yemeni population is currently in need of some kind of humanitarian assistance and support. Of these, millions do not know where their next meal will come from.
