Sanaa - Sana
The political bureau of Ansar Allah movement today condemned the new US sanctions imposed on the movement, describing them as "absurd."
The movement’s political bureau indicated in a statement today that “there is nothing new that America brings from its alleged sanctions except that they contradict what it claims in terms of peace,” stressing that Washington’s positions are evidence that it is “against peace and with the continued aggression and siege” on the Yemeni people.
The statement considered that "these sanctions have no real value" and that "America is carrying out aggression against Yemen with sanctions and other things," noting that Washington's positions "provide the aggressors against Yemen with a protective umbrella to continue targeting its people."
The US Treasury Department announced earlier that sanctions were imposed on two Yemeni military commanders, the Chief of Staff of the Navy and the Commander of the Yemeni Air Force and Air Defense Forces.
