Al-Ruwaishan told Al-Mayadeen TV: “The truce concerns Gaza, and the Yemeni military spokesman announced that our decision to close the Red Sea to the enemy still effects.”

He pointed out that the Yemeni position was clearly declared officially and popularly, and there was no longer any diplomatic language.

“Yemen’s standing by Palestine is a national, Arab, patriotic and moral duty,” Lt Gen. Al-Ruwaishan said. “We are ready for any consequences and any aggression.”
