Iran Condemns US Airstrikes on Yemen and Israeli Actions in Gaza
Iranian officials have condemned US airstrikes on Yemen and Israeli attacks in Gaza, citing civilian casualties and destruction. They view these actions as part of a broader conspiracy against Palestinian support. Iran’s Supreme Leader has called for the end of these attacks, expressing deep concern over the situation.
On March 20, Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei vocally condemned the recent US airstrikes on Yemen and the escalating Israeli attacks in Gaza. His statements emerged following a series of US airstrikes targeting Houthi positions in Yemen and intensified Israeli assaults on Gaza since the previous week.
Baghaei expressed profound sorrow over the increasing civilian casualties, especially among innocent women and children, and the widespread destruction of vital infrastructure in Yemen. He characterized these events as evidence of US “military aggression” and highlighted that nations supplying Israel with military assistance are complicit in these actions.
He further remarked on the troubling synchronicity between US actions in Yemen and the intensified violence in Gaza, suggesting a “joint US-Israeli conspiracy” aimed at suppressing support for the Palestinian people. The recent US airstrikes on Yemen’s capital, Sanaa, reportedly injured at least nine individuals, including women and children.
Additionally, in Gaza, an Israeli airstrike on mourners resulted in the deaths of at least 16 Palestinians and injuries to over 30 others. Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei condemned the US strikes on the Houthis, labeling them as “crimes that must be stopped.” He stressed that the attacks against the Yemeni civilians should cease immediately.
In response to US remarks regarding Iran’s involvement with the Houthis, Iran’s envoy to the United Nations highlighted the country’s rejection of what he termed “reckless and provocative” assertions made by US officials, including President Donald Trump, further showcasing the ongoing tensions between the nations.
In summary, Iran has explicitly condemned the recent US airstrikes in Yemen and Israeli aggression in Gaza. Iranian officials have denounced the resulting civilian casualties and destruction, deeming these actions as components of a larger, coordinated effort by the US and Israel against the Palestinian cause. The situation continues to escalate, prompting calls for the cessation of attacks and a reevaluation of US foreign policy in the region.
