The blockade of Israeli shipping in the Red Sea and the Bab Al-Mandab strait remains in effect, with continued operations targeting Israeli vessels. And to all those attempting to stop this effort, I say: No matter what you do to protect Israeli ships and enable Israeli navigation in the Red Sea, the Gulf of Aden, the Arabian Sea, and the Bab Al-Mandab, all your efforts are in vain.

The Saudi regime, at a time when Israeli tyranny is at its peak, as seen in Gaza, Syria, Lebanon, and Qatar, and amid the Israeli open declaration of imposing a status quo of unchecked aggression against every country in the region, including Saudi Arabia—indeed, the Israeli enemy does not see Saudi Arabia as an exception; it is included in the Zionist project, under the banner of 'Changing the Middle East'. No matter what Saudi Arabia offers—intelligence, financial, or political support, or even helping to confine the Arab and Islamic response to mere statements with no concrete action—the Israeli enemy will not appreciate any of that. Allah, the Most Truthful, has said, {'Never will the Jews or Christians be pleased with you, until you follow their faith'}[Al-Baqarah 2:120]. Whatever you do for them will not benefit you. The Quran affirms this in many verses, not only this one, showing that they remain enemies no matter what you do for them. You need look no further than this verse: {'Here you are! You love them but they do not love you'}[Ali ‘Imran 3:119]. It is enough to consider this verse: {'Their only desire is to see you suffer'}[Ali 'Imran 3:118]. The Quran contains many truths about their hatred and how they treat you solely as objects of exploitation.

The Saudi announcement of a partnership with Britain to protect Israeli shipping in the Red Sea—there is no need to say that any move taken by any side in the name of protecting maritime navigation is, in truth, nothing but an effort to protect Israeli ships, as these are the only ones targeted. Are Saudi or British ships being targeted? No. British ships were only targeted when Britain joined the Americans in the aggression against Yemen to support the Israeli enemy. Once Britain withdrew, the attacks on its ships ceased. It amounts to a betrayal of the Ummah that the Saudi regime announces such a partnership with Britain to protect Israeli shipping, especially at this critical juncture, where the Zionist Israeli enemy has reached the utmost in its crimes in Gaza and begun its ground incursion into Gaza City, displacing a million Palestinians and escalating its starvation and genocide against the Palestinian people—this is not to mention its aggression against Syria, Lebanon, and Qatar, and its open declaration of imposing a status quo of unchecked aggression against the entire Ummah. However, they will not succeed: Neither Britain nor the Saudis, nor any party that aligns itself with the Israeli enemy to protect its ships, will ever succeed.

Anyone in this Ummah, whether from Arab countries or elsewhere, who uses Israeli terminology or descriptions regarding the Yemeni position is, in reality, serving the Israeli agenda. We often hear the Yemeni position—which is a humanitarian, Quranic, and religious position—labelled as an 'Iranian position'. These labels originate with the Israeli enemy. Therefore, when some—whether regimes or others acting as proxies—use such descriptions, they are not different from parrots, mindlessly echoing Israeli narratives to justify both Israeli actions and their own betrayal and collaboration with the enemy.

This is also the case when it comes to terms like 'protecting navigation'. No harm in the Red Sea, the Bab Al-Mandab, the Gulf of Aden, and the Arabian Sea is intended except for Israeli ships. This is all part of our just and legitimate cause aimed at supporting the Palestinian people as jihad for Allah’s sake and standing against an enemy that targets and endangers our entire Ummah. Yet some continue to use Israeli language and terminology.

If anyone chooses to get involved alongside the Israeli enemy in any assault on our country, they will be dealt with as part of our battle with the Israeli enemy itself. It remains the same battle; no label or proxy can change its course.

Therefore, I advise the Saudi regime and others: Do not entangle yourselves in military support for the Israeli enemy in an attempt to protect its ships at sea. Have some shame! This is a disgrace, and you will not succeed. By Allah’s will, you will never be able to protect its ships or secure their passage, no matter what you do, provide, or conspire. Allah (Glory be to Him) is our helper and protector—what an excellent protector, and what an excellent helper! This will bring you nothing but loss; anyone who aligns himself with the Israeli enemy is bound to lose, and in these times, it is nothing less than a great disgrace. The matter is clear for all to see.
