Mohammad al-Bakhiti, a member of Ansarullah’s politburo, made the warning in an interview with Lebanon's Arabic-language al-Manar television channel following deadly strikes by the American and British warplanes on several Yemeni provinces.
Stressing that Yemen has entered a new stage of direct confrontation with the United States and Britain, Bakhiti said, "The American and British naval fleet will be the legitimate target of the Yemeni forces after changing their strategic approach".
He added, "The US, along with the Zionist enemy, is involved in the crime of genocide in the Gaza Strip, and the battle is now between truth and falsehood.”
The Ansarullah official said, "Yemen and Lebanon's support for Palestine caused fears to be shattered and the US’s claims to fall flat. We are facing major changes in the region and the Arab governments must prepare themselves for popular changes in the future.”
Bakhiti also warned Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates against any involvement in the US-led escalation in the strategic Red Sea.
“If Saudi Arabia and the UAE directly involve in aggression against Yemen, we will target their vital centers” he underlined.
Early on Friday, the American and British warplanes targeted with 73 missiles in five regions of Yemen, including the capital Sana'a, and the provinces of Hudaydah, Ta’izz, Hajjah, and Sa’ada, killing at least five people and wounding six others.
On Saturday morning, the US military claimed to have conducted a new attack against a radar site that belonged to the Ansarullah resistance movement in the capital Sana'a.
The Yemeni Armed Forces have vowed that any "criminal aggression" by the US and UK against their country will not go “unanswered and unpunished.”
Yemenis have declared their open support for Palestine’s struggle against the Israeli occupation since the regime launched a devastating war on Gaza on October 7 after the territory’s Palestinian resistance movements carried out a surprise retaliatory attack, dubbed Operation Al-Aqsa Storm, against the occupying entity.
The relentless Israeli military campaign against Gaza has killed at least 23,357 people, most of them women and children. Another 59,410 individuals have been wounded.
