SANA’A (Dispatches) – The leader of Yemen’s Ansarullah movement, Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, says that the United States, Britain and the Zionist regime ordered the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to escalate the situation in Yemen.
“The UAE is a major tool in the hands of the Americans, and it has failed and was harmed by its aggression,” al- Houthi said, adding “Whoever stood by America, Britain and Israel in their oppression and aggression is doomed to fail.”
“Our people are victorious in every sense of the word because of their sacrifices,” he said, adding: “We will not know defeat as long as our people are steadfast in their position, and victory will be their ally.”
Al-Houthi stressed that the group’s steadfastness in confronting the aggression is part of its commitment at all levels, calling on the Yemeni people to have more patience and faith in victory over all the crimes committed by the enemies.
Earlier this week, the Al-Mayadeen TV channel reported an informed Yemeni source as saying that the UAE has ordered its forces in Shabwa to reposition themselves and withdraw their military brigades, in a sign of “retreat that implies a clear defeat,” which comes “after Abu Dhabi’s failure and incurring great losses in front of the Yemeni forces.”
The UAE and Saudi Arabia—the U.S.’s closest allies in the region after the Zionist regime—have been waging a war on Yemen since March 2015. The invasion has been seeking to change Yemen’s ruling structure in favor of the impoverished country’s former Riyadh- and Washington-friendly rulers.
The war, which has been enjoying arms, logistical, and political support on the part of the United States, has killed tens of thousands of Yemenis and has turned caused of the world’s worst humanitarian crisis in the country.
Facing up to the invasion, Yemen’s army and its allied popular committees have vowed not to lay down their arms until the country’s complete liberation from the scourge of the invasion.
In the space of a single month, the joint forces have carried out several rounds of retaliatory strikes against targets in Dubai and the Emirati capital.
Sana’a has also warned Abu Dhabi that the counterstrikes would be exceedingly “painful” if the latter failed to wind down its involvement in the Saudi-led and U.S.-backed war.
