9:32 am
the yemenes this week on us owned vessels in and around the red sea, and that is a crucial lane for international trade, retentions have been spiking over the past two months. yemen has been attacking israely linked ships and retaliation for the regime's genocidal campaign in gaza, tensions in the red sea have escalated further in the past week after us and uk began air strikes on yemen, signing what they call threats to international shipping. joining us now from the eminy capital sun is abdul latif al washali press tv correspondent hello abdul latif i hope you are safe and doing well out there my friend what can you tell us with respect to these uh anti-israely anti-us and possibly according to general yahya sari even anti-uk ships in the future uh operations thank you so much the yemini army has made it clear since the beginning of the war on gaza that day. will
9:33 am
continue supporting the palestinian people with these operations in the red sea and the of gulf of aiden, even if the uh uh us and the uk came to strike the yemani people, the yemeni army will never hold the attacks until medicine are allowed to inter to palestinians in gaza. if you follow up the news you will know that now the us is just releasing statements to express the contradiction in the american administration, they said that they will... continue the attacks against the yemani people even when they realize and they realize that they will not stop they what they call the houties from attacking the vessels in the red sea. they know that their of attacks will never do anything to the international shipping. they keep telling the world that the yemeny attacks have nothing to do with the uh uh war on gaza, but the germany army has made it clear that if they want to maintain their interests in the region they have. to stop the war on gaza,
9:34 am
they are completely linked, yeah, and that's that's a silly assertion, because uh, they, i mean did these attacks take place, were israely linked and israely bound ships targeted before october 7th, and have the yemenese, especially the answer, not specifically stated, once the siege on gaza and the genocide campaign ends, so will the attacks on us bound vessels, yes, you see, even through the nine years of war that the yemenis have been facing from the satellite coalition which was backed by washington and also the uk. yemenis have never attacked any ship in the red sea, they did nothing, but now they are doing this just to protect the palestinian people to support the palestinian people who are facing a genocidal war being carried out by the israeli regime. the amenies will do this just to support the palestinian people, with the yemenes did nothing for themselves, but they are doing.
9:35 am
this the attacks for the palestinian people, if you uh just uh keep following the news, you will know that the just the us is attempting to turn the region into a battlefield. and they are just pushing the countries of the region to fight each other as they did during seven or nine years or four by pushing saudi arabia to fight the yemeni people to kill the yemeni people and now they are just attempting to support the israeli regime by uh pushing the region into new regional all what they care about is only the israeli regime why don't they just stop the war that is happening against the palestinians in gaza this will make sure this will... of course protect the international navigation and international shipping, but they don't want to do this, they just keep attacking the ameny people, even when they realize that these attacks will never stop uh the yemani army from attacking the israelian vessels, the attacks or the strikes of the uk
9:36 am
and the us did nothing, but they have just pushed the yemani army to include now the american and the british ships in the red sea and the gulf of eden, so why would they do such thing when they? that it will not be successful according to their statements right and abdul latif uh we know that the the us has not looking for escalation in the region, but how many strikes has it carried out against yemen and and all the operations the yemany army carried out against israely linked ships uh from what i've understood there were no fatalities, no one died as a result of those operations, but as a result the us operations against the yemeni army, we know there was that that fleet of small... boats like 10 or 11 people were killed there, there were five or six people uh killed in last week's attacks and there have been attacks since then and might not uh correct, you know the sights that are being striked by the uk and the us have been striked for nine
9:37 am
years by the south coalition and the yemini army has gained experties in now maintaining and hiding the missiles, the drones and all the... that they use in attacking the vessels and the ritsy and the gulf of aiden, so they will do nothing to the capabilities of the yemani army, the yemani army is now capable of fitting you know two ships maybe or more in one day, the yemani army has is ready for such attack and the yemani people are supporting these operations, they are telling the yemani army escalate the attacks in the red sea to prove to the us and the uk that we are serious here, we want the war on gas. to stop uh, if you keep hitting the yemani territories, you will gain nothing. you have just pushed the yemani army to include now the british ships in its attacks in the rid see. the yemani army has been attacking only israeli linked vessels until the beginning of the us and uk strikes against yemen. so i
9:38 am
believe that it is the right of the yemani army to defend the yemeni sovereignty by attacking the british and american ships in the red sea. yemenese are defend. themselves, the military presence of the us in the region is totally wrong, would america accept a military presence by iran, russia or china close to the us territories, of course they would never, they would never, but why, who gave them the right to be exist in the region, no one, they say they want to protect their interest, they are not protecting their interest, they are protecting their u proxies in the region and the uh uh the number one what they care about is only the israeli regime and abdul latif before we let you go the the attacks that the anti-israely operations on the high seas by the yemini army how many uh people were killed on those ships those israely linked ships we don't
9:39 am
have statistics released by the yemani army we only depend on the statistics released by the yemeny. army as a an official source of information uh we don't have any information about that you know and we uh we want to maintain our credibility and delivering the information for the audience of press tv. okay thank you abdul latif but let me tell you something if there was one or two people killed any of those israeli linked ships it would have been all over western corporate uh news channels obviously i'm trying to say to my point uh there were none but the yet the the us uh and uk carried out operations again. yemeni army killing a number of yemenis, but thank you for that update, stay safe, abdul latif, it's always a pleasure to check in with you from uh, yemen capital sana press tv's abdul latif al washali the're joining us. now the us has a relisted yemen movement as a global terrorist group over
9:40 am
attacks against israely link ships in the red sea. yemeni citizens have spoken out about the us move as was ongoing strikes by washington and london against their country. they can hit as much as they want. we are ready to support the palestinian cause until the last breath. we, along with the generations after us, will continue to confront them. repeated attacks will never deter us. america has been striking us for a long time. the aggression against us is veiled under the name of the saudi and emirati aggression, but america has been bombing us for a long time. this decision is a political move to cover up israel's crimes, claiming that we are a terrorist group is to justify the air strikes on yemen and palestine. this decision is not new, it's not an objective decision. is not based any real evidence because this decision was made before. this classification was approved
9:41 am
during the era of former us president trump, then the hoothies were removed from the terror list. this proves that it was decision that was not based on practical reality. rather, this indicates that the us makes these decisions to blackmail people and to use the decision like sword against anyone who stands against american and israeli interests. these classification on list of terrorism is under our feet, we don't care about it. we have fought wars for 9 years and from the first day we have been attacked by the us, israel and britain and this is not counting their agents from the arab countries. we say to them if anser allah are classified as a terrorist group, then what about israel? what about the us that kills in palestinian children and that destroys homes above their residence? what do we say about them? are they not our arab brothers and is palestine not? like us, isn't it our right to stand up and defend our palestinian people
9:42 am
with all we've got? palestinians are our brothers and we will not be silent about them and we will not let them down. irak's prime minister has reiterated his country's opposition to the presence of us forces in the nation. muhammad says that american troops must leave as daesh is no longer a threat to iraq. the reasons for the presence of coalitions forces were to confront daesh. today, the security situation, to the testimony of all specialists in iraq and friends, daesh does not pose a threat to the iraki state. today, after the repercussions and attacks on the iraqi security headquarters, we have the right to start this dialogue immediately in order to reach an agreement on arranging a timetable for the end. the mission of international advisers
9:43 am
was addressing panel discussion at the world economic forum, the swiss city of davos, he said ending us military presidents is crucial for iraq security and stability. these remarks came as us bases in iraq have repeatedly been attacked by iraqi resistance groups over washington support for israely genocide in gaza. in response, us military is launch attacks on iraq's. mobilization units, killing a number of their members. iraqi government has slammed us attacks as a grave violation of the country's sovereignty. last year sudani vow before the iraqi parliament to put an end to us military presence in the country. political commentator christopher hilali has shared his views on the issue with us. everywhere the us goes, they bring with destruction, kudatas, color revolutions and so on and so forth, the main idea here for us
9:44 am
to analyze is why the us has stayed after all these years since the defeat of daesh, and we recognize and we can understand that the reason isn't about daesh, the reason isn't about iraq, the reason is ultimately about iran, the reason is to have a military position close enough to the islamic republic of... where the united states can continue to project its um its power and of course we know from the the the former national security advisor johnton that the united states has been funneling arms and equipment to various terrorist entities across the border into iran and has been funding and training and promoting terrorist organizations that seek to over... throw the islamic republic like the terrorist organization, the mujahadin of halk in
9:45 am
albania, so of course we recognize that the us being there is one to project its aims at tehran, it has nothing to do with anybody else in the region. this is my land and my country. it is not only the 1948 or... borders from the sea to the river, i am not ready to let go of a centimeter. israel is here like any, by the support of the europe, by the support of the united states. that's why they separate the land, but i was at the babel shams protest last week, and i myself had a my head banged against a bus by soldier, illegally on illegal stolen land

9:50 am
such thing, after the withdrawal of the occupation force. the situation in the market and noseirat is good after a continuous bombing by the occupation forces, buildings and houses in general were destroyed, roads, infrastructures, suit and wells were also destroyed in the nuceirat refugee camp, but thank god after the withdrawal, the situation is getting better and people started to return, camp was one of the set fast camps and was an obstacle to the enemy vehicles, the massive skill of destruction. that was left after the withdrawal of the 36th division, as you can see, the infrastructure, the communication and internet networks and all the switch networks were struck and flattened and somebody... of marters are still under the rubble, highly illegal, highly unlawful, that's how un rights expert
