News - Yemen: The story of spy Huda Ali, recently arrested as part of the espionage network linked to the US, the Zionist entity, and Saudi intelligence, highlights one of the most common methods used by traitors to trap Yemenis, particularly young women, into spying.

Huda Ali, a 22-year-old high school graduate of 2020, initially had no intention of engaging in espionage. She worked in wedding photography after completing courses in photography and graphics. She met the spy Nasser Al-Sheibah in late 2022 while providing taxi services for him.

Al-Sheibah later persuaded her to collaborate, drawing her into espionage activities against Yemen.
According to her confessions, Huda participated in installing surveillance cameras in key locations including Attan in Sana’a and Sana’a Airport. 

She assisted Al-Sheibah in moving covertly through security checkpoints, providing cover as a family member in his car. She helped plant listening and monitoring devices in several locations, including private homes, bridges, hospitals, and vehicles, such as placing a device under a gray car owned by an individual named Hiba.

Huda also facilitated Al-Sheibah’s interactions with airport personnel, including an engineer who helped her place two devices at the airport. The espionage devices included small cameras, listening devices, and visual monitoring systems mounted on Al-Sheibah’s car, which were used to monitor targets and relay intelligence not available on standard maps like Google Maps.

Huda Ali urged other young women to exercise caution, avoid falling into the traps set by spies and traitors, and immediately report any suspicious activities to security forces, emphasizing the importance of vigilance against foreign intelligence operations.

Operation Their Plot Will Fail marked one of Yemen’s most significant counterintelligence achievements in recent years, exposing a deeply embedded spy network that reportedly operated under direct coordination between the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), Israeli military intelligence Mossad, and Saudi intelligence.

Security investigations revealed that the network was structured to collect strategic information on Yemen’s defense, communications, and energy sectors, as well as to influence internal affairs through media and recruitment channels. Officials described the operation as part of a long-term foreign campaign seeking to weaken Yemen from within and serve the geopolitical interests of the US-Zionist-Saudi alliance in the region.
