Russia condemns US-British strikes on Yemen

Russia has expressed its condemnation and strong rejection of the American-British aggression against Yemen.

AhlulBayt News Agency: Russia has expressed its condemnation and strong rejection of the American-British aggression against Yemen.

Russia’s deputy delegate to the Security Council, Dmitry Polyansky, said at a council meeting that the American and British strikes on Yemeni territory are unacceptable, stressing that they harm the internal Yemeni settlement.

“We note the destructive role of the coalition that has established itself as its ruler, led by the United States and Britain, and which continues to launch weekly attacks on Yemeni territory,” Polyansky said.

He added: “We reiterate that the missile and bomb attacks launched by the Western coalition led by the United States on the territory of sovereign Yemen are categorically unacceptable, as are attempts to justify aggression by Security Council Resolution 2722 or by referring to the right to self-defense under Article 51 of the United Nations Charter.”

Polyansky stressed that such actions harm the internal Yemeni settlement and undermine the efforts of international and regional mediators, noting that because of such actions, the Yemeni settlement has temporarily stopped.
