‘Bloody Yemen raid betrays evil nature of world bullies’
Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei has deplored the Saudi-led military offensive to seize Yemen’s lifeline port, saying the US-backed assault is yet another indicator of the evil nature of bullying powers.
Ayatollah Khamenei said Wednesday that the "bloody" and "criminal" attacks against Hudaydah by a number of countries possessing advanced weapons and with an aim to strip the Yemeni people of their control over a vital seaport "is another example of the evil nature of world bullies."
The Leader made the comments during a meeting with Iran's Majlis (Parliament) Speaker Ali Larijani and a number of parliamentarians in Tehran.The coalition has been attacking the port city, which takes in the bulk of the already-impoverished nation's imports, since June 13.The allies have been bombing Yemen since 2015 to restore its Riyadh-friendly former government.
The US and some of its allies provide the Saudi-led forces with logistical support, bombing coordinates, a commando contingent, and aerial refueling.
