In the ongoing battle of willpower, where the Zionist entity strives to assert its dominance and reshape the region in a manner that secures its supremacy, it finds itself confronted by the Resistance Axis. At the forefront of this axis stands Yemen — a force that has emerged as a formidable deterrent to Zionist ambitions. For the beleaguered Zionist regime, it is imperative now to reconsider its calculations regarding the Yemeni people and their armed forces, for Yemen has proven, since March 2015 and more profoundly over the past two years, to be an exceptional case.
This exceptionalism is grounded not only in Yemen’s deeply rooted values and unwavering principles but also in its readiness to take the initiative and decisively confront any threat to its sovereignty. It is not history alone that demonstrates this unique Yemeni posture, but rather the current, resolute stances Yemenis take in defense of national sovereignty against the joint American-Israeli aggression and the genocidal war on Gaza. The consequences and reverberations of these positions — as analyzed even by Zionist media — reveal that Yemen’s operations against both the Zionist entity and the United States have exposed a rising power whose effectiveness was previously unanticipated. This new force now poses a serious nuisance to their schemes against the Arab and Muslim worlds.
Zionist "Major General" Amir Noy has publicly acknowledged that Yemeni forces represent an escalating threat to "Israel", stating that their organizational and military capabilities now pose both a security and financial burden on the occupying entity. Based on his observations of Yemen's confrontation with both the U.S. and "Israel", Noy concluded that the Yemenis have “developed Indigenous weapon production, adopted independent offensive strategies, and risen to the top of Israel’s security concerns as a direct military threat.” He further noted that “Yemeni forces successfully disrupted commercial navigation by imposing an effective blockade on the port of "Eilat", which impacted the Israeli economy and forced "Israel" to spend millions on defense systems to counter their long-range missiles.”
Yemen’s capabilities are backed by a series of deliberate steps aimed not at showcasing power, but at utilizing it to thwart exploitation schemes and halt the oppression of Palestinians in Gaza. Among these bold actions was the decision to ban the export, re-export, transport, loading, purchase, or sale of U.S. crude oil (HS Code 2709.00) from American ports — whether directly or indirectly — including ship-to-ship (STS) transfers, in whole or in part, even via third parties. This audacity, previously unseen by adversaries, prompted them to intensify efforts to undermine Yemen’s sources of strength.
Yemen’s strength, however, lies in its arsenal of strategic cards, chief among them being an unmatched level of popular cohesion and consensus. From leadership to grassroots, including the armed forces, there exists a rare alignment in supporting the path of confrontation. This unity, driven by faith in the righteousness of their cause, fuels tireless mass mobilizations that echo weekly with chants of resilience, defiance, and readiness to face any escalation from the American and Zionist enemies. These demonstrations embody the spirit of jihad, challenge arrogance, and underscore ongoing support for Gaza, the Palestinian people, and their valiant resistance. Despite the enemies’ vile attempts to harm Yemen and its resources, the nation’s position remains resolute.
When a Zionist figure such as the criminal Netanyahu or the so-called “Defense Minister” Yisrael Katz issues threats against Yemen, the absurdity of such threats stems from their delusion, ignoring the reality that previous Zionist attacks barely surpassed damage to fuel tanks, water reservoirs, and power stations. Any new recklessness will not go beyond those limits, which is the only operational space available to them — and even then, it will provoke fiery retaliation. As a result, the Zionist regime and its occupiers will remain in a state of anxiety and alertness. As the Zionist Channel 12 reported, “The Yemenis are the only force capable of enduring and continuing the war.”
The Zionist entity, in its statements, seeks to present itself as larger than the battle between America and Yemen — a battle that ended in a humiliating Trumpian retreat. According to the Greek newspaper "Ekathimerini", the Yemenis inflicted severe operational challenges on the U.S. Navy, tantamount to the defeat of the world’s largest naval force. The newspaper wrote, “The Yemenis caused the most dramatic changes in modern warfare,” adding that Pentagon officials have realized the vulnerability of aircraft carriers and F-35 fighter jets when confronting Yemen. Observers argue that Netanyahu’s disregard for the reality of the American withdrawal is not an act of bravery, but rather one of political stupidity.
Any mention of potential Zionist aggression further underscores the entity’s inherently aggressive nature while simultaneously highlighting its instability and inability to grasp its current position. The regime has not yet recovered from the devastation left by Iranian strikes and still suffers from economic collapse due to the Yemeni and Iranian blows and the blockade imposed by Yemen’s armed forces on its air and maritime routes. "Israel" has effectively become an isolated entity with a visibly shrinking support base. Therefore, any claim of possessing the capacity to retaliate in response to the strikes Yemen launches in support of the Palestinian people is pure delusion.
Despite all efforts to deny it, even the enemy admits that Yemeni support for Gaza has significantly contributed to the steadfastness of the Palestinian resistance. This support, according to observers, lays the foundation for a new era — one that rejects submission to cowardly rulers and global arrogance.
Yemen’s armed forces affirm that the battle with the Zionist enemy continues. The Zionist newspaper "Jerusalem Post" recently published a report detailing ongoing attacks from Yemen on occupied Palestinian territories. The report states that, despite repeated “Israeli” airstrikes on their positions in Yemen, the Yemenis have managed to maintain their missile capabilities, enabling them to continue launching ballistic missiles and drones toward occupied lands. This was confirmed by the wailing of sirens that echoed across the Negev region in southern occupied Palestine on Saturday, where the Zionist enemy claimed it attempted to intercept a missile fired from Yemen.
