Al-Ezzi: Foreign Troops in Yemen Should Expect to Be Targeted at Any Moment

The Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, Hussein Al-Ezzi, confirmed, on Friday, that the presence of foreign forces whether “American or of other nationalities,” in any part of Yemen, constitutes a threat to all of Yemen and the region.

Al-Ezzi said in a tweet on the “X” website that “the Yemeni people have the right to target these barbaric forces. They should expect this at any moment. They will be very lucky if they are able to leave safely,” he added.

The United States continues its escalatory steps in the region, which reinforce efforts to obstruct peace in Yemen. In early August, it announced the arrival of additional forces to the Red Sea, which represents a direct threat to the territorial waters, islands and Yemeni governorates, especially in light of the declared American insistence on continuing the aggression and blockade.

The US Fifth Fleet said in a statement that “more than 3,000 Marines and sailors arrived in the Middle East,” noting that “amphibious assault ship USS Bataan (LHD 50) and dock landing ship USS Carter Hall (LSD 50) entered the Red Sea.”

US Marine forces deployed on Tuesday in the city of Al-Ghurfa, near the city of Sayun, the center of the Wadi and Hadhramaut Desert districts in eastern Yemen.

Informed sources revealed that the administration and students of Al-Ghurfa High School, 9 km from Sayun, were surprised by the invasion of the school by US Marines, accompanied by an unnamed US official, at 11:00 am, along with Saudi officers without prior notice.

The sources confirmed that the US official, accompanied by an Arabic translator, visited Al-Ghurfa Girls’ Secondary School after visiting the nearby Boys’ Secondary School to meet with the school administrations without coordination with the pro-aggression local authorities, who were unaware of the armed American visit.

They explained that the visit was limited to some advanced classes for male and female students in the scientific section, amidst heavy deployment of US soldiers and military vehicles next to the two schools and in the neighboring residential areas, causing fear among students and parents alike.

On Wednesday, President Al-Mashat warned the US Marines and British forces in the occupied provinces not to go too far as “Yemen is a red line.”

He addressed these forces saying, “Yemen possesses drones and rocket power, and it has a leader with a light hand on the trigger.”

“We rely on Allah at the forefront, on the awareness of this people, and the courage and wisdom of our leadership. These are the elements that will lead our country out of this crisis to safety,” he added. He pointed out that the people and loyal tribes are the safety valve against all enemy conspiracies.
