Ansarullah Ready for Biggest Operation to Defend Yemen’s Territorial Waters

 

The Yemeni army and popular committees (including Ansarullah) have prepared their forces for the biggest operation aimed at confronting possible aggression against the country’s coasts and territorial waters.

The Arabic-language September 26 news website quoted an informed military source as saying that the Yemeni forces are ready for launching operations codenamed ‘al-Bahr al-Masjour’ to defend their country against enemy aggression.

According to the report, if the Saudi and US aggressors approach the Yemeni coasts and the Red Sea waters, the army and its allies will start their largest-ever defensive operation.

Saudi Arabia launched brutal aggression against its Southern neighbor on 27 March 2015 in a bid to restore power to Yemen’s resigned president who fled to Riyadh after Yemeni people’s uprising in 2015.

Western countries especially the US, Britain are among key suppliers of weapons used by the Saudi regime to commit atrocities and war crimes in Yemen.

Over 14,100 Yemenis, mostly civilians including women and children have been killed during the ongoing Saudi-leg aggression on Yemen.

The Saudi military aggression has also taken a heavy toll on Yemen’s facilities and infrastructure, destroying many hospitals, schools, mosques and factories. This illegal aggression has prompted retaliation from Yemeni forces including launching missile attacks on Saudi military installations in the country’s capital Riyadh.
