From the start, it’s been just taking targets of opportunity. Almost like their goal is just terrorism in service to boosting their own legitimacy as a player in the ongoing civil war.
8 dead, 25 still detained.
A literal Israeli newspaper article about the blockade that has done the most economic damage to Israel to date as a source for how ineptly the people who have done the most damage to Israel are not doing it right. Oh, and it 403’s, currently.
Great sourcing there.
There is no ongoing civil war, too. It was won completely by Ansarallah against the puppet regime that Saudi Arabia and the US tried to install through forced starvation. This bullshit “Ongoing civil war” is just another example of refusing to acknowledge the winning side when people don’t like the fact they won.

What percentage of Yemen does Ansarallah hold?
What do you call a civil war when one side holds no territory or power?
I would also say that someone that claims a blockade doesn’t economically hurt the people being blockaded should get help.
30% of the area and 70% of the population. Ongoing combat has killed thousands in the past year alone (EDIT: This is incorrect - it’s the past two years - mind is still stuck in 2023, I guess). But sure, whatever you can do to simp for murderers, right?
Me: “Killing random civilians of various nations in the hopes that one or two might be Israeli is bad, and clearly has not impacted the ongoing Israeli genocide, which has only intensified since. Even if they were killing Israeli civilians only, supporting that would still make you a piece of shit.”
Sorry that you’re still in support of murdering civilians.
And you’re in support of a genocide.
Arguing is easy when you put words in other peoples mouths.
Was there a UN brokered peace deal? Yes. Did it end in 2022? Yes. Has there been any fighting since then? Not significantly, no. I don’t know where your thousands dead comes from. Or the 30% figure, considering that the vast majority of that 70% you’re presumably talking about is arid desert that doesn’t have people, of any denomination, in it.
According to @[email protected], this is evil, and results in killing civilians:
