US’s ongoing arms supplies for Israel exposes Washington’s hypocrisy: Houthi
The leader of Yemen’s Ansarullah popular resistance movement denounces the United States’ uninterrupted arms supplies for the Israeli regime, which is waging a genocidal war against the Gaza Strip.
Abdul-Malik al-Houthi made the remarks during a televised address on Thursday.
“This week, the Americans announced new shipments of weapons and equipment to support the Israeli enemy with billions of dollars,” he said, adding, “The American media confirms that Israel has received the largest military aid since World War II.”
Reporting late last month, The Washington Post said the administration of US President Joe Biden had authorized the transfer of billions of dollars in bombs and warplanes to the Israeli regime in a matter of days.
Pentagon and State Department officials said the new arms packages included more than 1,800 bombs, the daily said at the time.
Reports say the Washington has quietly made more than 100 weapons sales to Tel Aviv since October 7, when the latter began the war against Gaza in response to a retaliatory operation by the coastal sliver’s resistance movements.
More than 33,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children, have been killed in the brutal military onslaught so far.
Houthi said, “The announced deals represent only a small part of what America provides to the criminal Israeli enemy.”
The Ansarullah leader added that the United States’ constant flow of arms towards the Israeli regime -- which comes amid Washington’s calls for a ceasefire in Gaza -- “exposes the American hypocrisy.”
Elsewhere in his remarks, the Yemeni official noted that the country would continue its pro-Palestinian operations, which have seen Yemeni forces striking Israeli vessels or those belonging to the regime’s supporters.
“Our front in Yemen continues its military operations in the Red Sea, the Arabian Sea, and even reaching as far as the Indian Ocean,” he said.
“The total number of targeted ships reached 90,” he said, noting that the US and the UK, which have been trying to counter the Yemeni strikes, had “acknowledged their complete inability to stop the attacks.”
