Sana'a - Saba:
The Ministry of Justice and Human Rights condemned the Zionist aggression on the ports of Hodeida, Ras Issa, and Salif, and the central power station in Ras Katheeb.
The Ministry explained in a statement that ten Israeli warplanes launched a series of barbaric raids aimed at putting these vital civilian facilities out of service and preventing them from performing their purely humanitarian roles and missions. These ports are the sole artery for the entry of food, medicine, petroleum derivatives, humanitarian aid, and essential supplies that are indispensable to more than twenty million Yemenis and meet the needs of more than 90% of the population of the Republic of Yemen.
The statement warned the international community, which is complicit in the criminal Zionist behavior against civilian objects, and has turned a blind eye to all the gross violations committed by the criminal Zionist entity, which violate all the rules and principles of international law that criminalize the targeting of civilians and civilian objects, especially those related to the rules stipulated in the United Nations Charter, international humanitarian law, and human rights law.
The statement affirmed the legitimate right of the Yemeni people and their armed forces to defend themselves and their capabilities by all available legitimate means. These attacks will not deter them from their firm and continuing principled stance in supporting the oppressed Palestinian people, who are being subjected to the most heinous crimes of systematic genocide, inhumane violations, and the deliberate killing of children, women, and the elderly in death traps perpetrated by the criminal Zionist entity against the hungry and thirsty people seeking to meet their basic food needs.
The statement considered Yemen's support for the Palestinian people a religious and moral duty, from which it will not deviate, no matter the sacrifices, amid the shameful silence of the United Nations and the international community.
The statement reaffirmed Yemen's full right to defend itself and deter any external aggression, and emphasized the options of the political and military leadership to take the necessary measures to protect the country's sovereignty, safeguard its national security, and safeguard the interests of its people.
The Ministry held the United Nations fully legally, morally, and humanitarianly responsible for the Zionist criminality and arrogance, and its blatant and flagrant aggression against Yemen.
This organization called for immediate pressure on the US-backed Zionist entity to respect Yemen's national sovereignty, immediately halt its aggression against Yemen and Gaza unconditionally, lift the unjust blockade imposed on the people of Gaza, and hold war criminals and perpetrators of violations accountable.
The Ministry of Justice and Human Rights also affirmed that the rights of the Yemeni people will remain above all considerations, that the crimes of the Zionist-American aggression will not be forgotten, and that Yemen will always stand in the trench of truth and justice alongside all the oppressed, based on its sound faith approach, its lofty humanitarian principles, and its free national principles.
