Brigadier General Abdo Magli, spokesperson for the Yemeni Armed Forces, confirmed their capability to counter Houthi threats and secure vital waterways, including the Bab al-Mandab Strait, a key global trade route.
He highlighted the urgency of regional and international efforts to address ongoing Houthi attacks on commercial and oil vessels in the Red Sea and Arabian Sea, which threaten international trade stability.
Magli noted that Houthi assaults on maritime navigation align with Iran’s regional ambitions and exacerbate Yemen’s humanitarian crisis, undermining peace efforts. He called for decisive global action to curb the militia’s threats and maintain the safety of strategic trade routes.
On the ground, the Yemeni Armed Forces recently repelled Houthi infiltration attempts in several fronts in Marib and Taiz. Magli reported that the army neutralized Houthi artillery attacks and monitored militia movements, maintaining strong defensive positions. He also highlighted ongoing Houthi attacks on civilian areas in Taiz, describing the militia’s use of artillery and drones as part of their broader aggression.
The spokesperson underscored the growing strength and professionalism of the Yemeni Armed Forces, emphasizing their readiness to confront Houthi militias and their Iranian-backed agenda. He also warned of the Houthis’ continued mobilization in areas under their control, aimed at subjugating the Yemeni population.
Magli called for international cooperation to end the Houthi militia’s aggression, which threatens regional stability and global trade. He reaffirmed the Yemeni military’s commitment to securing the country’s waterways and protecting its people from ongoing threats.
