Yemeni armed forces prepare for direct combat against Western powers
Yemeni military officials have issued a stark warning of impending combat operations if American and Israeli strikes on Iranian territories continue to escalate. Brigadier General Yahya Saree confirmed that rebel units stand ready with their hands on the trigger, prepared to launch retaliatory campaigns. This aggressive declaration follows nearly a month of intensified allied military operations targeting both Iranian interests and various regional factions aligned with the Axis of Resistance. Saree stressed that any expanded involvement by foreign actors or hostile maneuvers launched from the Red Sea would immediately trigger a coordinated response from his forces. Since late 2023, these rebel factions have systematically disrupted global maritime trade routes in the Red Sea to show solidarity with Palestinian groups in Gaza, severely impacting international shipping logistics and forcing naval deployments from major Western powers.
Defending regional boundaries and demanding peace
Spokespersons for the Yemeni group frame their combat readiness as a strict religious and moral duty rather than mere political maneuvering. They claim allied forces aim to aggressively expand territorial control across West Asia to achieve "Greater Israel" ambitions, threatening Muslim nations worldwide. According to Iranian state media reports, Yemeni leadership views their defensive posture as a legitimate right of regional populations fighting against foreign domination. They hope to inflict significant defeats on advancing hostile units while demanding a complete cessation of allied hostilities. Furthermore, Saree called upon Western powers to respect diplomatic efforts and implement the stalled Gaza ceasefire agreement initially proposed last October.
Rising nuclear tensions and constant alert
As diplomatic channels struggle to establish lasting peace agreements, the broader regional conflict continues to escalate dangerously on multiple fronts. International monitors are raising alarms over specific targets being hit during the exchange of fire. The International Atomic Energy Agency recently reported that Iran's Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant sustained a third strike in just ten days. Fortunately, nuclear watchdogs confirmed no structural damage to the primary operating reactor and detected no dangerous radiation leaks into the surrounding environment.
Reports from Tasnim News indicate that the Ansarullah movement has maintained an elevated state of combat readiness since these strikes began, positioning themselves to swiftly enter the battlefield. Officials urge allied nations to lift harsh economic blockades and engage in meaningful diplomatic efforts to restore stability to both the region and the global economy.
