Iran rejects US accusations of supplying arms to Yemen
On Thursday, Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei described the US claims as a deceitful attempt to distract from the true issues plaguing the region, namely the Israeli regime’s acts of aggression and its crimes against regional nations.
The US Central Command (CENTCOM) claimed in a post on X on Wednesday that a military group known as the Yemeni National Resistance Forces (NRF) seized a 'massive' Iranian weapons shipment bound for Yemen’s Ansarullah movement.
He noted that Washington is trying to justify its military presence and provide excuses for its destabilizing actions in partnership with Israel.
According to Baqaei, the military and political support the United States provides to Israel has enabled the regime to escalate its genocidal campaign in Gaza and the occupied West Bank, while simultaneously violating the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Syria and Lebanon.
Israel has carried out acts of aggression against Yemen, Syria, Lebanon, Gaza and Iran.
