The head of Sana’a delegation, Mohammed Abdulsalam, revealed that discussions and communications under the auspices of the Sultanate of Oman are taking place with international parties on the operations of the Yemeni armed forces in the Red Sea.
“Sana’a assured everyone that Yemen’s operations are to support the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip, and that it cannot stand idly by in the face of the aggression and siege on the Strip, where there is no food, medicine and even potable water had been cut off by the enemy entity,” Mohammed Abdulsalam said in a post on his X account.
برعاية الأشقاء في سلطنة عمان يستمر التواصل والنقاش مع عدد من الأطراف الدولية بشأن عمليات البحر الأحمر والبحر العربي.
وقد أكدنا للجميع أن عمليات اليمن هي لمساندة الشعب الفلسطيني في قطاع غزة، وأنه لا يمكن أن نقف مكتوفي الأيدي إزاء ما يتعرض له القطاع من عدوان وحصار حيث لا غذاء ولا…— محمد عبدالسلام (@abdusalamsalah) December 16, 2023
He added: “In various meetings, it was confirmed that Yemen’s position with Gaza is not subject to bargaining, and the enemy’s ships or those heading to its ports will remain vulnerable to attack until the aggression is stopped, the siege on Gaza is lifted, and humanitarian aid flows continuously to the Strip. Taking real steps to respond to the humanitarian situation in Palestine and Gaza by bringing in food and medicine would contribute to reducing the escalation.”
Mohammad Abdulsalam previously revealed that Sana’a received several communications and messages from active countries confirming their support for the ceasefire in Gaza and their commitment to working to bring humanitarian aid to the Palestinian people, and that these countries are “against the expansion of the conflict.”
While, Sana’a encourages all plans that demand a ceasefire and the entry of aid, it emphasizes the importance of translating these plans into reality, he stressed.
He confirmed that Yemen’s position would remain firm alongside the Palestinian people until the aggression stops and the siege on Gaza is lifted.
