The Major General says Yemen is ready to confront any “state or entity that stands between [Yemen] and Palestine.”
The commander of the Fifth Military Region in the Sanaa government, Major General Yusuf al-Madani, affirmed Yemen’s unwavering commitment to support Gaza, regardless of any external pressure.
In a statement on Monday, the Major General declared that “any escalation in Gaza is an escalation in the Red Sea.”
On reports of a potential maritime military coalition being discussed between the United States, the Israeli occupation entity, and a number of countries, including Arab states, al-Madani emphasized that the Yemeni Armed Forces will confront “any state or entity that stands between [Yemen] and Palestine.”
Yemen is “committed to maintaining high readiness against any potential threats, as the enemy is lying in wait for Yemen and seeks reactions after being humiliated.”
The senior Yemeni military official referred to the operation of capturing the Israeli commercial ship Galaxy Leader, explaining that it took place “under extremely complex conditions and 120 kilometers off the coast of Yemen.”
He also revealed that “the special forces that carried out the operation underwent extensive training for two years to execute such operations,” adding that “the operation was successfully conducted despite the enemy being in a state of caution, with a significant US presence in the Red Sea and its vessels deployed in a close proximity to the ship.”
