Yemeni Government denounces Iranian Regimes Actions

The Yemeni government has issued a strong condemnation of the Iranian regime, criticizing its policies and the involvement of Iranian-backed militias in Yemen. In a statement reported by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), officials expressed their rejection of what they termed “senseless wars” instigated by Iran, which they claim aim to undermine national sovereignty and threaten regional stability.

The government highlighted the role of Houthi militias, which they described as terrorist groups, in perpetuating Iranian interests in the region. They asserted that these militias are part of a broader pattern of destabilization seen in other countries influenced by Iran, where armed factions undermine state authority and engage in conflicts that serve foreign agendas. The Yemeni government categorically rejects this model, emphasizing the need for national sovereignty in decisions regarding war and peace.

In their statement, Yemeni officials warned of the severe consequences of Iranian involvement in Yemen, particularly the risks posed to national security and the humanitarian situation. They noted that the ongoing conflict exacerbates living conditions for the Yemeni population, already facing one of the worst humanitarian crises globally, by disrupting supply chains and increasing food and energy prices.

The Yemeni government reaffirmed its commitment to maintaining sovereignty and protecting civilians, stating that any military actions outside the framework of the Yemeni state are considered unlawful. They called on the international community to take decisive action against Iran’s violations of Yemeni sovereignty and to support efforts to restore governmental authority across the country.

In conclusion, the Yemeni government reiterated its determination to prevent its territory from being used as a platform for threats to regional and international security, aligning its actions with international law and relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions. They continue to seek international support to achieve stability and development for the Yemeni people.
