Ansarullah furious at US military build-up in Yemen

Ansarullah Movement's Spokesman Mohammad Abdulsalam strongly condemned the US for dispatching its military servicemen to a military base in Lahij Province in southern Yemen.

"The presence of the US soldiers in Yemen is blatant violation of Yemen's national sovereignty," Ansarullah Movement's Spokesman Mohammad Abdulsalam wrote on his Twitter account on Sunday and in reaction to the deployment of the US troops in southern Yemen.

He underlined that the Ansarullah Movement condemns the US deployment in southern Yemen.

Abdulsalam underlined that the occupying forces should leave Yemen and take their military hardware with them.

"When we declared that Al-Qaeda and the Daesh are present in the southern parts of Yemen and the Yemeni army should take the responsibility to confront them, (fugitive President) Mansour Hadi and Riyadh denied the same; now who is going to be accountable," Ansarullah spokesman said.

In a relevant development on Saturday, Ansarullah in a statement condemned the US deployment in the southern parts of Yemen.

"This action is in line with Washington's colonial goals and is blatant aggression against Yemen," part of the statement read.

The statement reiterated that the Yemeni people irrespective of their political inclinations are against the US troops' deployment in their country.
