Iran Condemns Israeli Strike on Yemen
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The Iranian Foreign Ministry’s spokesperson strongly condemned the Israeli regime’s air attacks on power plants and sea port facilities at Yemen’s Ras Isa and Hodeidah ports.
In a statement on Sunday night, Nasser Kanaani denounced the Israeli savage attacks, which led to the destruction of civilian infrastructures, as indicative of the inhumane nature of the Zionist regime.
These crimes are carried out with the unconditional support of the US regime, making Washington a full partner in the atrocities committed by the criminal gang ruling Tel Aviv, he added.
Kanaani praised the honorable support of the Yemeni people for the oppressed Palestinian nation and emphasized that the Zionist regime's assault on Yemen and its civilian and service infrastructure is a blatant and repeated violation of the United Nations Charter.
The spokesman stressed that the international community has a responsibility to stand against such rampant lawlessness by the Israeli regime.
He also warned about the consequences of the Zionist regime’s warmongering and incendiary actions for regional and international peace and security, the Foreign Ministry’s website reported.
The supporters of Israel, including the US government, are directly responsible for the dangerous and unpredictable consequences of the continued Zionist crimes in Palestine and Lebanon, as well as their aggressive and adventurist attacks on Yemen, he concluded.
The Israeli attacks have killed at least four people in Yemen, including one port worker and three electric engineers.
The air raids also caused power outages in most parts of Hodeidah, according to residents.
The attack came a day after the Houthis said they fired a ballistic missile at Ben Gurion International Airport near Tel Aviv.
