Jalal al-Rowaishan has offered his condolences to Al Mayadeen after the network lost two colleagues who were martyred by Israeli drone strikes.
The Deputy Prime Minister for Defense and Security Affairs in the Sanaa Government in Yemen, Jalal al-Rowaishan, told Al Mayadeen that the temporary humanitarian truce, between the Palestinian Resistance and “Israel”, will not affect the government’s decision to close the Red Sea off for Israeli vessels.
“The truce concerns Gaza, and the military spokesman announced that our decision to close the Red Sea to the enemy still stands,” al-Rowaishan affirmed.
He emphasized that the Yemeni position on the war on Gaza has been popularly and officially declared, adding that Yemen will no longer seek diplomatic means in relation to the Israeli occupation’s aggression on the Gaza Strip.
The official stressed Yemen’s seriousness in confronting the Israeli occupation, saying ” To those who say that we are putting up an act in terms of supporting Palestine: put up an act like we are doing.”
He stressed that supporting Palestine is a national, patriotic, and moral obligation, emphasizing that the Sanaa government is ready to take on any repercussions and any aggression.
Al-Rowaishan emphasized that any such actions against Yemen will not amount to the nine-year-long war that has been launched on the country by the US and “Israel” through Arab states.
