In a statement released on Saturday, Hezbollah extended its deepest condolences to the Yemeni people, describing them as "free and noble" and commiserating with the families of the martyrs and wounded. The statement honored those who fell in support of the Palestinian cause and resistance, framing the Israeli aggression as part of a broader American-British campaign against Yemen and its ongoing siege.
Hezbollah denounced the Israeli airstrikes, which they view as a continuation of regional aggression backed by the U.S. and Britain. The group emphasized that such actions underscore the importance of regional support fronts in defending the Palestinian cause.
The statement expressed confidence that the aggression would only strengthen Yemen's resolve and resistance, and that the Yemeni leadership, known for its courage and strength, is capable of countering this threat. Hezbollah warned that the airstrikes represent the beginning of a new and dangerous phase of confrontation in the region.
Hezbollah also affirmed its unwavering support for Yemen in defending its sovereignty and its historic stance alongside Palestine.
Yemeni media reports indicate that the Israeli airstrikes targeted oil refineries in the port city of Hodeidah, causing significant fires in oil storage tanks. (ILKHA)
