  • US missile strikes on Yemen encouraging genocide in Gaza: Cuba

Cuba has vehemently condemned recent missile strikes carried out by the United States and its allies on Yemen’s soil, saying the move encourages the Israeli regime's genocide against the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez Parrilla said the airstrikes came “in violation of international law.”

“Acts of this nature encourage genocide in Gaza," the Cuban diplomat wrote on X.

President Joe Biden of the United States said he ordered the strikes in response to "unprecedented” attacks against vessels heading to Israeli ports.

Yemen’s Armed Forces have recently been staging missile and drone strikes against vessels heading to Israeli ports in support of the Palestinians in the besieged Gaza Strip.

Yemen has vowed to continue to prevent the passage through the Red Sea of all ships owned by the illegal Zionist entity or heading to Israeli ports as long as the regime’s genocidal campaign in Gaza goes on.
