Yemen pledges to respond to ‘israeli’ aggression with resilience and force
Yemen has reiterated its commitment to supporting Palestinian efforts in opposition to the Israeli regime's continuous and devastating conflict in the Gaza Strip.
“Defense Minister Major General Mohammed Nasser al-Atifi stated on Saturday at a ceremony that Yemen’s steadfast support for Gaza remains unwavering, with no room for hesitation, retreat, negotiation, or compromise.”
“Our resolute and unwavering reply to the Nazi entity from Yemen is imminent, without hesitation or worry. We will confront Zionist extremism with Yemeni might, a force they have already experienced in the seas,” he stated.
Since October 7, Yemen’s Armed Forces have been launching numerous attacks on the occupied Palestinian territories in response to the regime’s initiation of war on Gaza. This conflict has resulted in the loss of at least 40,939 Palestinian lives, predominantly women and children.
The forces have also been targeting Israeli ships and vessels traveling to and from the territories as a strategy to compel the regime to halt its brutal military attacks and the ongoing siege on Gaza.
In the meantime, they have vowed to retaliate decisively against the regime’s assassination of high-ranking resistance leaders. These targeted killing operations, conducted in late July, took place in both Tehran, the Iranian capital, and Beirut, the Lebanese capital. These actions resulted in the death of Ismail Haniyeh, the former head of Hamas’ Political Bureau, and Fuad Shurk, a senior commander in Lebanon’s Hezbollah resistance movement.
Al-Atifi also emphasized that Yemen aims to enhance its capabilities both in volume and quality, aligning with the most recent military development strategies they pursue.
Last month, Yemen’s defense chief emphasized that the nation’s “military decision-making process has thoroughly examined all military factors and carefully assessed the vulnerabilities of the Zionist adversary.”
“The critical targets within the Zionist strategic objectives have been meticulously identified through thorough informational and intelligence analysis,” he further cautioned.
