🇾🇪 Ansarallah political office:
—
Following their raids with Britain in Yemen, their crime against the Naval Forces, and their sponsorship of zionist crimes in Gaza, the United States deliberately proceeds with what it calls the "designation" on the "terrorist list."

This designation is a ridiculous behavior, coming from a country known as the global state of terrorism.

The American classification of Ansarallah at this stage is a badge of honor they wear for their supportive stance towards the Palestinian people.

We affirm that the American classification has no practical value, and that the United States is practically behind the suffering of Yemen, with or without classification.

Yemen is fundamentally subject to an economic blockade by the United States, and there is targeting of the banking system in Yemen, which has been disabled by the Americans over the past years.

The alleged classification is an American injustice, deception, and a failed attempt to tarnish the reputation of Ansarallah and the Yemeni people.

The alleged classification reinforces American aggression against Yemen, placing Yemen in a situation of open war against the global terrorism state.

🇾🇪 Ansarallah Supreme Political Council:
—
The American classification of Ansarallah confirms the insistence of the American administration to continue supporting the zionist entity in its savage war.

The American classification of Ansarallah came only to serve the zionist entity.

Any American step on any Yemeni component will not deter the Yemeni people from continuing to carry out their religious and moral duty towards Palestine.

If America sees defending our brothers in Gaza as terrorism, then we consider it a badge of honor for Yemen and the Yemeni people, present and future.

The American terrorist list is no longer effective, especially on the Republic of Yemen, which has points of strength that make it as if the list did not exist.

We call on all the sons of the Islamic nation to condemn and confront the American decision and to cooperate at all levels to expel the Americans from the region.

🇾🇪 Ansarallah spokesman Mohammed Abdul Salam:
—
The American classification [of Ansarallah as a "terrorist entity"] brings nothing new and confirms that it came on the background of Yemen's position in support of the oppressed Palestinian people.

The American classification is a badge of honor and a testament to the impact of the Yemeni position at sea.

The American classification targets not Ansarallah but the position of the Yemeni people in support of the Palestinian people.

The American classification is not new, and the United States has taken more than one decision and classification previously to harm the interests of the Yemeni people.

The American classification will not affect our position or our operations but will backfire on them with significant public support.

The first step to ending tension at sea and with global consensus is to stop the aggression on Gaza.

It is a misconception to focus on the results and ignore the real reasons for what is happening at sea.

🇾🇪 The Yemeni Armed Forces will issue an important statement in about thirty minutes, at 11:40 Sana'a time.

🇾🇪 Yemeni President and Supreme Commander of the Yemeni Armed Forces, Mahdi Al-Mashat, begins the preparation of a draft law listing entities and countries hostile to the Republic of Yemen, with the zionist entity as the first on the list.

This comes hours after the United States baselessly added Ansarallah to its so-called "terrorist designation list" for its operations that aim for a ceasefire and lifting of the siege on #Gaza.

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
The Almighty says: "If anyone attacks you, retaliate in the same manner. But be mindful of Allah, and know that Allah is with those mindful of Him."
This is the truth of Allah Almighty.

In support of the oppressed Palestinian people, and in support and backing of the steadfastness of our brothers in the Gaza Strip, and as part of the response to the American-British aggression on our country:

The Naval Forces in the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out a targeting operation of the American ship "GENCO Picardy" in the Gulf of Aden with a number of appropriate naval missiles, and the strike was precise and direct, by the grace of Allah.

The Yemeni Armed Forces will not hesitate to target all sources of threat in the Arabian and Red Seas within the legitimate right of defense of dear Yemen and in continuation of supporting the oppressed Palestinian people.

The Yemeni Armed Forces affirm that the response to the American and British aggressions is inevitably coming, and that any new aggression will not remain unanswered and unpunished.

The Yemeni Armed Forces confirm the continuation of navigation movement in the Arabian and Red Seas to all destinations around the world except for the ports of occupied Palestine, and that their operations against "israeli" ships or those heading to the ports of occupied Palestine will not stop until the aggression ceases and the siege on the steadfast Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip is lifted.

Allah is sufficient for us, and He is the best Disposer of affairs, the best Master and the best Helper.

Long live Yemen, free, dignified, and independent.
Victory to Yemen and to all the free people of the nation.

For we hold much and much more against the occupation.

Wait for us. We are coming right into your home.

🚨 Picture of a "Namer" IOF armored vehicle, the so-called "most well-protected" IOF armored personnel carrier, destroyed after being targeted by the resistance in #Tulkarem using an explosive device.

The zionist army is currently sending reinforcements towards Tulkarem camp coinciding with the ongoing military operation for over 18 hours.

The camp, which has seen 6 of the 11 martyrs from Nablus and Tulkarem today, continues to resist the invasion.

After the IOF bombed 395 mosques in the Gaza Strip, including all of them in northern #Gaza, a group of displaced people decided to perform their prayers in the courtyard of a school used for shelter.

🚨 Missile sirens ring in "Holit," "Yated," "Shlomit," and "Yevul," near the southern #Gaza Strip.

On the 103rd day, our Palestinian people and our family in the Gaza Strip continue their legendary steadfastness, patience, sacrifices, and firmness on their land, in the face of the the aggression, criminality, and schemes of the occupation.

This great nation, armed with all the meanings of glory, dignity, pride, and struggle, proves to both enemies and friends that it is a people that cannot be broken and does not know surrender in its lexicon, despite the aggression and the genocidal war practiced by the Nazi occupation, with all its brutality, criminality, and sadism, targeting all aspects of human life.

All expressions of pride, esteem, and praise fall short of of doing justice to this great people in the Gaza Strip of pride, in its heroism, patience, resilience, sacrifices, firmness, and struggle, defending a just cause, legitimate rights, and the dignity, honor, and sanctities of the nation, which this Nazi enemy and its supporting forces, want to liquidate, obscure, and erase the features of.

The occupiers will not succeed in achieving any of their aggressive goals and plans, God willing. Thanks to the steadfastness of our people and the heroism of our resistance, the clear victory will be achieved, by the grace and power of God.

The Nazi occupation continues in its war of systematic starvation and dehydration against more than two million Palestinian citizens in the Gaza Strip, where more than 800,000 Palestinians are experiencing a real famine, due to the occupation's prevention of the entry of aid, food supplies and provisions, fuel, gas, and supplies necessary for the continuation of normal life.

The displaced people in the governorates of the Gaza Strip are living a real tragedy, indescribable and inexpressible, amidst the absence of all the essentials of normal life, including food, water, medicine, and shelter. 400,000 of them have contracted infectious diseases as a result of displacement.

The number of injured has risen to about 61,000, who are deprived of traveling for treatment outside the Gaza Strip, amidst the occupation's crimes against hospitals and rendering them out of service.

More than 7,000 people are still missing under the rubble, 70% of whom are women and children. The medical teams and Civil Defense have not been able to recover them yet, due to the ongoing indiscriminate savage bombing, and because of the lack of fuel and necessary equipment.

This Nazi occupation has not left any heinous crime uncommitted against the Gaza Strip, during more than 100 full days of bombing, destruction, genocide, and ethnic cleansing. The fascist occupation army has carried out more than 2,000 massacres against unarmed Palestinians, civilians, children, and women, leaving more than 31,000 martyred or missing.

In the occupied West Bank, the occupation continues its brutal crimes, through daily raids into cities, villages, and towns, and through operations of arrest and assassination, as well as its settlement and Judaization policies, and arming the settlers there, giving them free rein to violate the land, blood, and sanctities.
