A top official from Yemen’s Ansarullah resistance movement has reaffirmed his country’s unwavering support for the cause of Palestine, saying the Arab country will firmly stand with the people of Gaza against Israel under any circumstances.
“We are addressing our brethren in Gaza: We reaffirm commitment to peace and reconciliation with those who are at peace with you. At the same time, we will be in a state of war and conflict with those whom you are fighting against,” Mohammed al-Bukhaiti, a member of Ansarullah’s political bureau, said in a statement.
Since the onset of Israel’s genocidal war on the Gaza Strip in October 2023, Yemen’s 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 towards ports in the occupied territories.
Referring to the latest developments in Gaza, al-Bukhaiti said, “In order for the Gaza ceasefire to hold, we remind everyone that the Yemeni support front is a leverage of pressure in the hands of Palestinian negotiators, and they can count on it.”
After more than two years of relentless bombardment that killed tens of thousands of Palestinians, the Israeli regime bowed to international pressure and approved a US-brokered agreement to halt its genocidal war on Gaza and exchange prisoners with Palestinian resistance factions.
The office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced early on October 10 that the regime’s cabinet had approved a deal to end the war in the Gaza Strip.
The deal followed four days of indirect talks between the two sides in the Egyptian city of Sharm el-Sheikh, with delegations from Turkey, Egypt, and Qatar, under US supervision.
Under the deal, the Israeli army is required to withdraw to the so-called “yellow line” within 24 hours, after which Hamas will release the remaining living prisoners within 72 hours.
Since October 2023, the Israeli regime’s brutal campaign has killed at least 67,682 Palestinians — mostly women and children — and reduced Gaza to ruins, drawing global outrage and calls for accountability.
