In the session, the parliament condemned the American-British aggression targeting Yemeni cities, which yesterday targeted various areas in Al-Tuhayta District and before that in Ras Issa area of Al-Salif District in Hodeida province.
Council members considered the continued aggressive US-British raids on Yemen a clear violation of Yemeni sovereignty, and an attempt to dissuade Yemen from its decision to prevent Israeli ships from passing through Red Sea in support of the Palestinians in Gaza Strip, who are being subjected to a genocidal war by the Zionist entity.
They denounced the shameful Arab and international silence regarding the continuation of genocidal war crimes against civilians in Rafah city, the last area where the Palestinians took refuge.
The parliament called on Arab , Islamic peoples and the free people of the world to continue organizing marches and supporting events to stop the war and end the siege imposed on the Palestinians for more than 130 days.
It called on the UN bodies concerned with human rights to follow up on the issue and oppression of the Palestinians in international courts and to file lawsuits to prosecute the Zionist war criminals and their supporters in international courts so that they may receive deterrent punishment for the horrific massacres, war crimes, genocide and siege they committed against the Palestinians.
The Council had begun the session by reviewing and approving the minutes of its last meeting, and it will continue to hold its business sessions next Saturday, God Almighty willing.
