Yemeni defense minister warns enemies of ‘unexpected surprises’ in coming days
Yemen’s defense minister has warned the United States, Britain, and Israel against the repercussions of their strikes against various regions across the Arab country, vowing that the enemies will receive “unexpected surprises” in the coming days.
Major General Mohammad al-Atifi said on Saturday, in a message on the occasion of the birthday anniversary of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), that what is coming will be “harsher and more severe than anything they have faced in the past.”
“Enemies have already suffered defeat at sea. What happened as a result of our maritime operations could be repeated in ground offensives as well.
“Our response to Israel’s strikes against the Red Sea port city of Hudaydah [on July 20] will be a nightmare for the enemies. It will seriously jeopardize their security,” Atifi said.
“The coming days hold surprises [the enemy] will not expect” and “could [have] never imagined,” he warned.
“Yemeni armed forces will respond with an iron fist to any act of aggression to their homeland. They will neither forget nor forgive any such vicious act. Enemies will regret the day they opt to wage an all-out war on Yemen,” Atifi pointed out.
The Yemeni defense minister also emphasized that the country’s army will remain steadfast “to protect their homeland and sacred sites.”
Yemenis have declared their open support for Palestine’s struggle against the Israeli occupation since the regime launched a devastating war on Gaza on October 7 last year, killing more than 41,000 Palestinians to date.
The Yemeni Armed Forces have said that they won’t stop their attacks until unrelenting Israeli ground and aerial offensives in Gaza end.
Israel launched its brutal campaign of genocide in Gaza after Palestinian resistance groups conducted a surprise Operation Al-Aqsa Storm into the occupied territories.
The regime has had in place a near-total siege on the coastal territory, which has reduced to a trickle the flow of foodstuffs, medicine, electricity, and water into the Palestinian territory.
Leader of the Ansarullah resistance movement Abdul-Malik al-Houthi has said it is “a great honor and blessing to be confronting America directly.”
The attacks have forced some of the world’s biggest shipping and oil companies to suspend transit through one of the world’s most important maritime trade routes.
Tankers are instead adding thousands of miles to international shipping routes by sailing around the continent of Africa rather than going through the Suez Canal.
