North Korea's totalitarian Communist government denounced President Donald Trump on Tuesday for ordering airstrikes on Yemeni Hooty terrorist organizations as a response to an extension campaign to disrupt global shipping in and around the Red Sea.
Officially known as Ansarrah, Houthis is an Iran-backed Shiite terrorist organization that currently controls the country's capital, Sana'a. They are part of the “axis of resistance,” a regional network of Iranian proxy terrorist groups, including Shiite gangs such as Hezbollah and Iraqi Popular Mobilising Forces (PMF) and Sunni groups such as Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ).
The Houthi terrorists declared a war with Israel in October 2023, invading Israel that month, engaged in a rampage of murder, gang rape, torture and other atrocities. Houthis has largely supported Hamas through attacks on random commercial vessels trying to pass near Yemen, a highly trafficked area, due to its location near the Red Sea and Suez Canal. Houthi's leaders claim they are targeting only ships related to Israel or the US, but I think terrorists can bomb seemingly dozens of ships, including those related to friendly countries such as Russia, China, and Iran.
The attacks destroyed global commercial transactions. Terrorists have sunk two ships in the area – Greek-owned MV Private tutor And owned by the British rubymar – and forced a large amount of commercial traffic to avoid the Red Sea, rushing to earn the Suez Canal to complicate passage around Africa. According to the White House, about 75% of ships belonging to the US and UK have it Rerouting Around South Africa's Cape of Hope, it's a much more expensive and long voyage.
Houthi leaders suspended the Red Sea terrorist campaign in January in response to a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel, but last week announced plans to reopen attack vessels in the region. In response, President Trump launched airstrikes aimed at reducing the group's ability to attack, vowing serious retaliation for further Hooty attacks on both the terrorists themselves and the Tehran patrons.
“For all Houthi terrorists, your time is over and your attacks must stop from today. If they don't, hell will rain over you like you've never seen before!” Trump wrote in a message on Saturday confirming the airstrikes of his social media outlet Truth Social.
“To Iran: Houthi's support for terrorists must end soon! Americans, don't intimidate their president,” he continued.
North Korea, which has not directly benefited from the current Middle East conflict, was overwhelmed on Tuesday through the ambassador of Cairo and Yemen's ambassador Man Hui. Ma Published A statement via the state's propaganda South Korea Central News Agency (KCNA) network parrots the unfounded Houthi, claiming that Trump killed “children and women” and accused the United States of “hooliganism.” This statement completely omitted any mention of Houthi Terrorism.
“This military attack by the United States is a violation of all international law, including the UN Charter, and an open infringement of the sovereignty of other countries that cannot be justified,” Masa argued.
“I strongly condemn, strongly condemn and reject the illegal military movements of the United States,” the ambassador continued.
Ma “urges others around the world to protest US Holiganism to seriously hamper the peace and stability of the region, and the United States should stop such indiscriminate use of force at once, which induces its own international isolation.”
The MA did not mention that Ansarra is a jihadist terrorist organization and not a Yemeni government. Yemen's legal government has been headquartered in a city in southern Aden since the Hoosis seized Sanaa in 2014, causing an ongoing civil war.
North Korea is not an active participant in the war between Hamas and Israel, nor is it a continuing conflict between the US and Iranian proxy forces. For years, the Communist dictatorship has diplomatically supported Iran and anti-Israel causes. Evidence suggests over the years that Pyongyang will benefit from selling weapons.
In 2019, the UN Monitor issued a report to the Security Council Condemnation North Korea has violated sanctions relating to its illegal weapons industry through its secret sales in the Middle East. The report nominated Houthis as one of several entities seeking to purchase military equipment from North Korea, including Libyan and Sudan rebels.
Following the attack on Hamas on October 7th, attacks on Israel's hometown, North Korea's monitor site 38 North recall The Israeli government and South Korea's government had long been monitoring relations between North Korea and Hamas. That relationship was part of a broader network that linked North Korea to Hezbollah, Houtis and other Iranian proxies.
“In July 2015, South Korean intelligence officers revealed that Houthis had fired 20 North Korean-made Scud missiles in Saudi Arabia,” reported 38 North.
Since then, “In July 2016, a leader of Hauty invited North Korean officials to meet in Damascus to discuss the technology transfer.”
“North Korea has sought to grant this request by using Syrian weapons trafficker Hussein al-Ali to ship light weapons to the Houssis,” the website detailed. “Despite reports that Houthis has revised North Korea's Hwasong-6 Scud due to a long-range strike in Saudi Arabia, the UN expert report has stopped checking wartime weapon delivery from North Korea to Houthis.”
