Hamas on Friday sharply condemned what it called the "American-British aggression against Yemen," after launching a series of strikes on the Iranian-backed Houthi rebels.
The Palestinian terrorist organization said it was holding Western powers responsible for the repercussions on the region's security.
"Washington and London must reevaluate their colonial policies by respecting the sovereignty of Arab nations and not remain idle in the face of Zionist crimes," a statement read.
Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthi militants fired on Saudi oil installations in two ports on the Red Sea coast on Saturday, but the United States held back from launching air strikes on Iran itself for the first night in two weeks.
Yemen is edging towards the resumption of a more than decade-old frozen conflict, Yemeni officials, Western diplomats and analysts say, as attacks on Saudi infrastructure and shipping by Iran-aligned Houthis test the patience of the kingdom and the Yemeni government forces it backs.
Iran flew Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) commanders, military advisers and missile- and drone-related equipment into Yemen this month, according to four sources, in a move that suggests Tehran is seeking to strengthen the ability of its Houthi allies to threaten Red Sea shipping.
