News -Yemen: The leader of revolution issued a direct warning to the Saudi government against involving itself in any military efforts to protect Israeli navigation in the Red Sea, stating such efforts are doomed to fail.

In a significant address on Thursday, Sayyed Abdulmalik al-Houthi characterized the newly announced Saudi-British initiative as having a single true objective: "to protect Israeli navigation." He asserted that any maritime security effort raised at this time is, in reality and truth, nothing but a cover for safeguarding the Israeli enemy's ships.

He challenged the premise of the conference, asking, "Is there targeting of Saudi ships?" He noted that British ships were only targeted when Britain participated in the aggression against Yemen in support of the Israeli enemy.

By making this announcement "at the peak of Zionist criminality in Gaza and the violations against Syria, Lebanon, Qatar, and the entire nation," Sayyed Abdulmalik accused the Saudi regime of committing an act of "betrayal" against the Islamic world.

Addressing Saudi Arabia directly, he was unequivocal: "You will not succeed... Be ashamed of yourselves. You will not be able to protect the Israeli enemy's ships in the Red Sea... This is a disgrace upon you, and at the same time, you will not succeed." He emphasized that divine support was on Yemen's side, making any such protective efforts futile.

The leader reiterated that any party that enlists itself with the Israeli enemy is a "loser" and will face "great disgrace." He advised the Saudi regime and others: "Do not entangle yourselves in militarily supporting the Israeli enemy to protect its ships at sea."

Sayyed Abdulmalik also dismissed characterizations of the Yemeni stance as "Iranian" as Israeli propaganda, repeated by other regimes and "agents like parrots" to justify their own betrayal and subservience. He clarified that the naval stance is solely in support of the Palestinian people and against an enemy that targets the entire nation.

The speech concluded with a firm declaration that the ban on navigation for the Israeli enemy in the Red Sea and Bab el-Mandeb is continuing and that all efforts to stop these operations will fail. He stated that no matter how much Saudi Arabia serves the enemy entity through intelligence, finances, or politics, it will not benefit, as the Israeli enemy is merely exploiting Riyadh for its own gains.

This came as a response to a recent Saudi-hosted maritime security conference in Riyadh, which saw participation from over 40 countries and resulted in an announcement of a Saudi-British partnership for Red Sea security. Yemen's Armed Forces have conducted a persistent campaign against Israeli-affiliated shipping in the Red Sea and Bab el-Mandeb Strait in what they declare is solidarity with Gaza and opposition to Israeli aggression.
