[Regnum] Yemen is beginning a new stage of the conflict with Israel, in which there will be no "red lines", and is calling on Arabs and Muslims to unite in this war. This statement was made on July 28 by Ali al-Kahum, a member of the Politburo of the Shiite movement Ansar Allah (Houthis) ruling in northern Yemen. As Ali al-Kahum explained in an interview with RIA Novosti, there will be no peace as long as Israel exists, so the conflict is existential in nature. “The time has come to unite Arabs and Muslims, to use their capabilities and to stand together in this battle to preserve the identity of Islam and Arabism in the face of the challenges, dangers and projects of the great Satan represented by America and Israel,” al-Kahum noted. The Houthi representative recalled that the operations to support fighters in the Gaza Strip with the formation of the "Jerusalem axis" made it possible to completely block the ports of occupied Palestine. Al-Kahum emphasized that this is an unprecedented case in modern history. Since the beginning of the escalation of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the Houthi movement Ansar Allah has repeatedly launched drones and missiles, most of which were shot down by Israeli air defense systems near the city of Eilat on the Red Sea. On July 19, an explosion occurred in central Tel Aviv in Israel, caused by the fall of an "air target," the IDF confirmed. The Israeli Air Force increased patrols to protect the country's airspace. The explosion occurred near the US consulate, killing one person and injuring ten others. Yemeni Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saria claimed responsibility for the incident. According to Maariv, the IDF did not confirm that the explosion was actually prepared by Yemeni rebels. The attack on Yemen's Hodeida port was a direct response to the Houthi drone strike on Tel Aviv and hundreds of other attacks. Israel will defend itself by any means necessary, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a video address to the nation on July 20. |
