00:00:01specifically from
00:00:15for the naval coalition due to this
00:00:21other than the increase in oil prices
00:00:25would be enough. This
00:00:31under the banner of this
00:00:34Iran wants from this
00:00:35Many are counting on
00:00:38Welcome, dear viewers. The threats posed by
00:00:41the Houthi terrorist militia, supported by the Iranian
00:00:44regime, against international
00:00:46Yes, it is navigation in the Red Sea and Bab al-Mandab continue. This
00:00:49escalation raises increasing concern for the security
00:00:53of one of the most important maritime passages
00:00:55in the world. The latest attack on an Indian
00:00:59merchant cargo ship confirms the continuation of these attacks
00:01:02that transcend Yemen's borders to affect the security of global
00:01:06trade and the stability of the region, raising questions
00:01:09about ways to confront these threats and the role of the international
00:01:13community in protecting freedom of navigation and supporting the Yemeni
00:01:16state to restore and fully obtain
00:01:19its sovereignty over all Yemeni territories. Regarding this
00:01:26strait, meaning due to their siege topic, and regarding our country's condemnation of the Iranian attack, or rather the Houthi attack supported by Iran, on
00:01:30the Indian merchant
00:01:34You know what happened on in your speech. And I will also return ship, this will be the focus of our discussion in this special coverage. Before we begin
00:01:37the discussion with our guests, who will join us successively in this coverage,
00:01:40let's watch, dear viewers, this
00:01:47is capable, I believe, of
00:01:56go with a group of The attacks carried out by the Houthi militia against
00:02:00merchant ships in the Red Sea
00:02:03meaning that this and Bab al-Mandab are no longer isolated incidents; they have become a systematic
00:02:05approach that threatens international navigation
00:02:08and exposes one of the most important maritime passages
00:02:11in the world to increasing dangers, amidst
00:02:15the militia's continued targeting of ships and obstruction
00:02:18of global trade and energy supply
00:02:21lines. In this context, the Ministry
00:02:24of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates
00:02:26We all know in of the Republic of Yemen condemned in the strongest terms
00:02:30they deem appropriate according to their presence the terrorist attack that targeted the Indian merchant ship
00:02:34with an explosive boat, which led to its
00:02:37complete sinking, emphasizing that this
00:02:39aggression represents a blatant violation of international
00:02:43law and maritime law, and an extension of the series of attacks
00:02:46carried out by the militia against merchant ships in the Red Sea,
00:02:50Bab al-Mandab, and the Gulf of Aden. The Ministry affirmed
00:02:54the full solidarity of the Yemeni Republic with the Republic of India,
00:02:57commending at the same time
00:03:00And you, at this the rescue operation carried
00:03:02in our liberated areas out by the Yemeni Coast Guard forces with the participation
00:03:04of the naval forces, which resulted in the rescue of all crew
00:03:08members and their safe transfer to Al-Mokha Port.
00:03:11This aggression reflects the Houthi militia's determination to drag
00:03:15I mean. And here the region into further tension and harm
00:03:18international interests, considering it an arm that implements
00:03:22Iran's destructive agenda
00:03:23in the region.
00:03:35increase their attacks on civilian objects So, dear viewers, as is
00:03:38its custom, this terrorist militia is carrying
00:03:41and then not a single projectile out continuous targeting and working
00:03:44to implement Iran's agenda, Iran's ambitions, and Iran's
00:03:48is the only one capable of settling project in the region. We saw recently what it did by targeting
00:03:51the civilian merchant
00:03:53recognize the danger of these Indian ship, which was carrying
00:03:56food and aid for
00:04:00Yemenis. However, this militia, also in light
00:04:03of the terrorism, starvation,
00:04:05Houthi terrorist militia is trying to escape and siege it is imposing on the Yemeni people
00:04:08in areas under its control, worked to target this ship
00:04:10and sink it. However, the government coast guard forces
00:04:14were able to rescue the crew of
00:04:17this ship. We are now joined via video call
00:04:20by Professor Amin Al-Mushouli, the writer and political analyst.
00:04:24Professor Amin, welcome. Welcome,
00:04:27welcome, Professor Amin. Professor Amin,
00:04:30the targeting
00:04:32the United States of America of the Indian merchant ship
00:04:36and this is its nature and its followers, and it does not by the Iranian-backed Houthi terrorist militia
00:04:39carries many implications and represents an escalation at this stage.
00:04:42In your opinion? First, greetings to
00:04:46you, your guests, your channel, and to the viewers and followers.
00:04:49My dear, the Houthi militias are sending a clear message
00:04:52that they are against
00:04:55that the Yemeni people from any peace or any talk about peace
00:04:58or de-escalation, and entering into other
00:05:02programs other than the killing and destruction that we
00:05:05see and observe at this stage. Today,
00:05:09again, this militia within 48
00:05:11repeats this targeting. hours, they carried out very large military operations.
00:05:14They targeted two ships belonging to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. They targeted
00:05:18the Indian ship, and they are besieging the Yemeni people. They are telling everyone that
00:05:22I will besiege you. I will besiege the interior, which is under
00:05:26my mercy and the mercy of my missiles, and my
00:05:29boats and the military drones. They
00:05:32are also telling all these people, "Where will
00:05:36you go from me? For you are under my mercy. I will launch
00:05:39drones, missiles, booby traps, and naval mines."
00:05:43With which they achieve what
00:05:46arm. Today, these militias are telling the world
00:05:49that the Bab al-Mandab Strait is no longer
00:05:52anything but a purely Iranian strait, whether anyone likes
00:05:56it or not. This is the current discourse of the Houthi
00:06:00militias, and it is what we see manifest before all of us.
00:06:03The targeting of this Indian ship is a humanitarian targeting
00:06:06in every sense of the word, and it is
00:06:10a war crime because this ship was carrying
00:06:13humanitarian aid or food
00:06:15supplies. These supplies were going
00:06:18to Al-Mokha port in order to help people or
00:06:22feed them or whatever they were for. They were
00:06:26going to help
00:06:29people cope with the hardships of life and the harsh living conditions caused by
00:06:33these Houthi militias
00:06:36on the interior and on the region, excuse me,
00:06:39and on the Bab al-Mandab Strait specifically. Yes. Of course, there is a very important point
00:06:44to the implications of this matter. But you
00:06:48mentioned that today the Bab al-Mandab Strait has become
00:06:51an Iranian strait par excellence. So, the danger
00:06:54of that, with Iran's control
00:06:57over the Strait of Hormuz, what is the danger
00:07:00of that? My dear, we all know
00:07:04that whoever wants to control this region only needs to
00:07:09soldiers and a group of naval mines to control
00:07:12the strategic chokepoints that
00:07:15surround the Middle East. This is what Great Britain
00:07:19did, which at that time was an empire
00:07:21on which the sun never set. How did it control the world?
00:07:25It went with a group of soldiers to the Strait of Hormuz, to Bab al-Mandab,
00:07:29to the Suez Canal, to the Cape of Good Hope,
00:07:32and by doing so, it was able to
00:07:35choke this region.
00:07:39political
00:07:41geography that this region is the center of the world, and that this
00:07:44region is where the whole world passes
00:07:48from east to west and from north to south. Today, Iran wants to
00:07:51send a message that "I am the one who controls you
00:07:54and your oil." We all know that 21% of
00:07:57the energy supplies that pass through Bab al-Mandab are now
00:08:01obstructed, and nothing enters except as these militias wish,
00:08:05as a strategic arm for
00:08:07the Iranian pirates who began pirating in the Strait
00:08:11of Hormuz and today in Bab al-Mandab, and perhaps tomorrow they may head
00:08:15to the Suez Canal, as happened in Damietta, although
00:08:18according to my information, no party has claimed responsibility
00:08:22yet, even at this moment, although there are indications
00:08:26that Iran is behind this region. Today, Iran wants
00:08:29to tell the whole region, "Where will
00:08:32you go from me and my arms that I control? I have spent
00:08:36my heart's blood on these arms, and today
00:08:39they are doing and acting as I wish,
00:08:43not for themselves. These arms do not care about their people, their countries, or
00:08:47their regions. Their only concern is what I want,
00:08:51the Persian Empire that wants to return to the
00:08:54forefront, and it is seizing or devouring
00:08:57the geography of the Bab al-Mandab Strait after it
00:09:00obstructed the movement of supply chains in
00:09:03the Strait of Hormuz. Yes. Has the world failed in the face of this Iranian
00:09:07folly in the region and this targeting? I mean,
00:09:10couldn't the world stop this terrorism?
00:09:13In your opinion? My brother, the whole world is searching,
00:09:17and the language of international dealings is purely pragmatic,
00:09:21meaning that a party may be supported to obstruct another
00:09:24party. Today, we all know that the United States of America
00:09:28is striking not for the benefit of the Middle East, but for
00:09:31its own personal benefit, to destroy or cut
00:09:35off energy supply chains to China specifically, because
00:09:38the coming war will be with China, and we all know that. Today,
00:09:44does not want to destroy this region to extort this
00:09:48geopolitically important region for the whole world. Where
00:09:51will arms companies go? Of course, they will
00:09:54go bankrupt if this region is secure. Today, there is a conflict
00:09:58that the United States of America wants to keep a wounded
00:10:01tiger, which is Iran. But the Israelis also
00:10:05want to destroy this state
00:10:08so that the time and place in the Middle East will be
00:10:11clear for them. Today, the world is not...
00:10:14And perhaps we have all witnessed
00:10:18a new alliance that has begun to form, and it is in its early
00:10:22stages, which has begun to emerge and which the Arab and Islamic
00:10:25world and the entire Middle East rely on: Turkey, the Kingdom of Saudi
00:10:28Arabia, Pakistan, Egypt, Qatar,
00:10:32and perhaps other countries will follow suit. Today, we noticed
00:10:35that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia appointed a commander for the naval forces or
00:10:40that was established in recent days, and it was attended
00:10:43by countries totaling 14 countries, as the media
00:10:47reported. And today I read in the news that there are countries
00:10:50that have started sending messages that they will join
00:10:56alliance. The world today, the Middle East specifically, will not allow
00:11:00anyone to continue Iran
00:11:02with this unlimited tyranny,
00:11:05and perhaps the first and last word will be for the Yemeni people
00:11:09when the atmosphere is clear for them and the region allows us, as the Yemeni
00:11:12people, to resolve our issue, and then
00:11:15only the Bab al-Mandab Strait will be secure. Yes. Okay, what do you think are the political
00:11:19dimensions for establishing this coalition you referred to, the multinational
00:11:23naval multinational coalition for maritime
00:11:26security and protection? Today, as you also mentioned, the Saudi
00:11:30Ministry of Defense announced the appointment of a commander for
00:11:33this coalition. What are the political dimensions in light of the current developments
00:11:37and situation? First, we all know that
00:11:40the Bab al-Mandab Strait in particular and the Red Sea in particular,
00:11:44the Bab al-Mandab Strait is not a special canal or a special strait dug
00:11:48by humans, but rather a natural
00:11:51that this strait is a global strait that
00:11:55concerns the whole world. And when the energy and food supply chains
00:11:58are obstructed, as is happening in the targeting of this ship that
00:12:02we are talking about today, or the targeting of Saudi
00:12:05ships that were carrying oil in the past
00:12:09days, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
00:12:12its military formation in the navy, it can
00:12:15resolve the issue. But it realizes that this strait
00:12:18is not special to it or
00:12:21to the littoral states of the Red Sea, but rather it is special.
00:12:25It is a lifeline for the whole world,
00:12:28strait concerns the whole world. And when
00:12:31the countries of the world form a coalition, the burden will be
00:12:34eased, and the cost will be divided
00:12:38among these countries. And perhaps
00:12:41these countries, in fact, I can say that they
00:12:44will send and participate, whether
00:12:46it is
00:12:48with military personnel or sailors,
00:12:52or intelligence, or whatever
00:12:55and the strength of their forces in the Red Sea,
00:12:59the Arabian Sea, the Bab al-Mandab Strait, and the Horn of Africa. Yes. Okay, how can this coalition
00:13:02succeed, in your opinion? What are the practical steps
00:13:06to be able to preserve and protect
00:13:09maritime security in Bab al-Mandab, and thus also preserve
00:13:13trade, navigation, and supply chains
00:13:16and so on?
00:13:18My brother, we all know that these Houthi militias can
00:13:22fight the whole world, and they are ready to fight all
00:13:25the countries of the world, but they are not ready to wage an internal
00:13:29war with the Yemeni people, because the Yemeni people have experience
00:13:32dealing with these Houthi militias. But
00:13:35we know, and the world knows, and the region knows, that the whole
00:13:39world, if it wants to secure the Bab al-Mandab Strait, only needs
00:13:42to take one step
00:13:46only, which is to allow the national army to wage
00:13:49a decisive ground battle at 360
00:13:53degrees and scatter in different military
00:13:56areas, east and west, north and south, waging a battle
00:13:59simultaneously. Then the issue of the Houthi
00:14:02militias will be settled,
00:14:06will be launched at the Red Sea or the Arabian Sea, because everyone
00:14:10will be under the banner of the state, and the state
00:14:13this issue. My brother, we all know that the longer
00:14:17the settlement is delayed, the greater the cost,
00:14:20not only for the interior but for the region and the
00:14:24whole world. Today, how much have the littoral states
00:14:27of the Red Sea lost from these crimes committed
00:14:31by the Houthi militias? I read a report at the end of last year
00:14:34stating that the Suez Canal and this report
00:14:37issued by
00:14:51room will try to reconnect with Professor Amin Al-Mushouli, the writer
00:14:55and political analyst. Professor Amin
00:14:59was talking about the multinational
00:15:01coalition concerned with protecting maritime
00:15:05navigation and maritime security in Bab al-Mandab,
00:15:08and he spoke about the littoral states of the Red Sea
00:15:12that are directly affected, whether they are
00:15:15regional states or others, directly affected
00:15:19by these tensions, this
00:15:22escalation, these practices, and this terrorism.
00:15:25From the Houthi militia, backed by the Iranian regime, in
00:15:29Bab al-Mandab. I mean, once
00:15:36A number of countries have been affected. The Suez Canal
00:15:39and Egypt are at the top of these countries. Professor Amin was talking about
00:15:42a report that clarified
00:15:46the great losses that Egypt and the Suez Canal
00:15:50specifically incurred
00:15:52targeting. And also
00:15:56I mean, whether it was the first time
00:16:00when the Houthi terrorist militia escalated and worked
00:16:04to disturb security in Bab al-Mandab, or
00:16:07currently, and this also calls for a firm stand.
00:16:12the coalition, the multinational coalition, to have
00:16:15an effect in this matter. We will go, dear viewers,
00:16:18if Professor Amin Al-Mushuri
00:16:22joins us again via video call,
00:16:25the writer and political analyst. Professor Amin, welcome
00:16:28again.
00:16:41were talking about the losses
00:16:44specifically talking about the
00:16:52the losses of the interior and the losses of the region,
00:16:56if I wanted to talk about, everyone knows the losses of the Yemeni
00:16:59interior. The Houthi militias destroyed all the infrastructure. Billions
00:17:03of dollars were due to their presence. I was following,
00:17:06as I told you a while ago, the report issued by the Egyptian Ministry
00:17:10of Economy, which talks, I don't remember the numbers, but it's
00:17:14from six to nine billion in losses to the Suez Canal because
00:17:17these Houthi militias obstructed energy and food supply
00:17:21chains passing through the Suez Canal
00:17:23and their launch to the countries of the world via the Cape of Good Hope.
00:17:27This means that the longer the settlement of these
00:17:31militias and their elimination is delayed, the more
00:17:34the cost increases. And everyone knows that the cost of war
00:17:38is less than the cost of these Houthi militias
00:17:41remaining. And this information is not unknown to anyone,
00:17:44meaning every day we delay is a loss of our blood, our
00:17:47souls, and our capabilities as the Yemeni
00:17:50people, and even the region. How much have the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
00:17:54lost from the targeting of civilian objects?
00:17:57How much has Egypt lost? How much
00:18:00has Yemen lost? These countries, if they do not give a green
00:18:03light to the national army and to the military formations
00:18:08under the Ministry of Defense today to settle
00:18:12the battle, then we will all
00:18:14be...
00:18:18from these militias that will be a thorn and a dagger in the side
00:18:21of the Arab and Islamic nation, but also the whole world. And this
00:18:25is what the whole world is paying for today, not just us and the
00:18:29region. Yes, Professor Amin, please stay with us. We will go for a short
00:18:33break, then we will return to complete the discussion with you, dear viewers.
00:18:38break, then we will return to complete the discussion. Stay with us.
00:20:01So we return again, dear viewers, to talk about
00:20:05the terrorist attack and the continuous escalation by the Houthi
00:20:09terrorist militia, backed by the Iranian regime,
00:20:12in Bab al-Mandab, and its recent targeting
00:20:15of the civilian merchant Indian
00:20:18ship. We also return to complete the discussion
00:20:21with Professor Amin Al-Mushouli, the writer and political analyst.
00:20:24Professor Amin, you were saying that the cost
00:20:27of liberating Yemen and getting rid of this
00:20:30militia is far less than what
00:20:34the world, the region, Yemen, and Yemenis
00:20:37and civilians everywhere are paying for the continued existence of this militia
00:20:41and its terrorism and its support in Tehran. I mean,
00:20:44all the targeting that this militia is doing is mostly
00:20:48launched from land,
00:20:51Hodeidah. What has
00:20:53the world, the region, and even the Yemenis
00:20:57and Yemen lost from the failure
00:21:00to complete the liberation of Hodeidah
00:21:03and stopping the battle to liberate Hodeidah, in your opinion?
00:21:07If there were no losses for the world
00:21:11for Yemen, even by one cent, then that
00:21:15amount that was added due to
00:21:18the obstruction of chains in Bab al-Mandab is enough
00:21:22to overthrow this terrorist group
00:21:26that obstructed
00:21:29navigation in the Red Sea and struck the Kingdom
00:21:32of Saudi Arabia, and as I mentioned a while
00:21:35ago, the Egyptian economy. My dear, the world
00:21:38today, when you see that a ship was struck here and a ship
00:21:42was struck there, this is due to the militias, and they are the kings.
00:21:45If there is a state, then international
00:21:49relations dictate that the state that borders the sea
00:21:52must protect this maritime
00:21:55geography, and it is responsible. The responsibilities of a state
00:21:58are not the responsibilities of militias. Today, the Houthi
00:22:02militias are sending messages written in blood,
00:22:05that there is no financial survival unless you... Today, these militias,
00:22:09when they pluck here or there, send a message
00:22:13even to those who defend them, that we do not carry any olive
00:22:15branch of peace, but we carry the tool
00:22:19of death and destruction, as is happening.
00:22:24land and at sea, and we all followed that. Yes. Okay,
00:22:27the targeting of this ship, which is a civilian
00:22:30ship, a merchant ship carrying
00:22:34food and aid to the Yemeni people
00:22:37everywhere, in Houthi-controlled areas or in liberated
00:22:41areas. How does this targeting refute the false propaganda
00:22:44of the Houthi terrorist militia, which talks about
00:22:48the siege on Yemen and also works to starve
00:22:51people? The Houthi militias
00:22:54are besieging the interior within their
00:22:57geography and even besieging the liberated areas. If I wanted to mention
00:23:01one detail, how the entire Yemeni economy collapsed
00:23:04when they besieged and prevented the export of even a single
00:23:08drop of oil from Al-Dabba port and targeted Al-Dabba port
00:23:12and all the other ports or two other ports
00:23:16from which the Yemeni legitimate government was exporting
00:23:20to support the national economy, and
00:23:24that would lead to an improvement in the exchange rate
00:23:27and would lead to the Yemeni
00:23:30people getting their share of their wealth and benefiting
00:23:34from it. Today, the Houthi militias seem to be saying,
00:23:37by targeting this ship, "I have prevented you from
00:23:40exporting oil, and today I prevent you even from importing food
00:23:43and medicine." Perhaps there were medicines on that ship. Today, they are besieging
00:23:47everyone and telling Yemenis, "Whether
00:23:52or in the areas that are still under your control,
00:23:56you are at my mercy, and you are in my firing line,
00:23:59and there is no escape for you except by eliminating it." That is what
00:24:05I address a message to all the Yemeni people, in the liberated areas
00:24:07and the non-liberated areas, that
00:24:11enough is enough, for the coming days
00:24:14may witness worse than what we are experiencing
00:24:18from the siege, and perhaps blood will flow. And I personally
00:24:21expect these militias to
00:24:25to try to sow fear in the popular base after they
00:24:28sowed it in the sea, specifically.
00:24:32And if we take the detail of this ship, today businessmen
00:24:35are afraid when
00:24:39they bring their ships or their materials or what they
00:24:42want to bring into Yemen, they fear for it. And we all know
00:24:46how insurance costs have risen because of
00:24:50this strike and other strikes in the Red Sea. I mean, the
00:24:55from the entitlements before
00:24:58the people in its controlled areas to such
00:25:02actions, or is it only acting today to alleviate
00:25:05pressure on Iran and what
00:25:08Iran is doing and Iran's terrorism?
00:25:12My dear brother, we all know that the goal of these militias is
00:25:15what Iran dictates to them. We have exhausted all
00:25:19the words on all channels and media platforms and discussions
00:25:23about this group, and the unconscious
00:25:26mind has become saturated with
00:25:28the ethics of these militias. And perhaps if you noticed
00:25:32that when an official comes out and says that this group is a terrorist
00:25:35group, they respond to me in the comments, "Brother, we know they are terrorists since
00:25:392015. What new thing are they bringing?" The only new thing
00:25:45top to bottom should do is wage a decisive
00:25:48battle against these militias. My dear brother,
00:25:52the Yemeni people have exhausted
00:25:55all words. When we talk about the evils of this
00:25:59group, it gets consecrated even
00:26:02within the popular base. The new thing that we will add when
00:26:05we talk about this group, the new thing
00:26:09that we must talk about, is to utter
00:26:13only one word or one sentence, a call to the Yemeni
00:26:16people: "Do you want to carry arms? Then whoever wants to carry
00:26:19arms, we will organize him. And whoever cannot carry
00:26:23arms, we will teach him how to carry arms to wage
00:26:27a decisive battle against these Houthi militias." As for going
00:26:30for analysis here and there,
00:26:37these militias, my dear brother, either kill you or you kill
00:26:41them. We, as a national project, must bear the cost
00:26:44to eliminate this Houthi militia one way or another.
00:26:49they who impose this matter and seek to kill
00:26:52Yemenis and destroy their capabilities. But the Leadership
00:26:55Council also praised the efforts of the Coast Guard
00:26:58forces. The Coast Guard was also able to rescue the crew
00:27:03of the ship. I mean, what is your reading of this
00:27:07performance, the performance of the Coast Guard, and what
00:27:10does it need to enhance its capabilities, in your opinion?
00:27:13First, I am not a military analyst to talk about military
00:27:17capabilities. I do not want to talk on behalf of the military, but I call
00:27:20on the brothers in the leadership council... I mean, I mean a political
00:27:24reading. I mean, Professor Amin, a political reading of
00:27:27these capabilities and this
00:27:29success today in this mission.
00:27:31They succeeded and evacuated this ship and brought them back to Al-Mokha
00:27:35port, and this is a dear and qualitative step.
00:27:39We thank them for it and we support them,
00:27:41but the brothers in the Presidential Leadership Council must
00:27:45leave the square
00:27:48of statements, because the Yemeni people
00:27:51are seething from within today, seeing the blood of their children
00:27:54and the resources of their homeland flowing before their eyes while
00:27:57they are bound and cannot do anything. The Presidential
00:28:01Leadership Council, headed by Dr. Rashad Mohammed Al-Alimi,
00:28:05must fight this historical battle,
00:28:09because we, as the Yemeni people, face historical entitlements.
00:28:13My dear brother, the Imamate previously did not commit
00:28:16such crimes as we see today.
00:28:19Why? Because these militias
00:28:23today are fighting with the expertise
00:28:26of a Middle Eastern state, which is Iran, and this
00:28:29is no secret to anyone. They are fighting with information,
00:28:33fighting with modern weapons, fighting with everything
00:28:36that is available in Iran for one reason only:
00:28:39to seize the geography of Yemen that controls the Bab
00:28:43al-Mandab Strait. Yes, Professor Amin Al-Mushouli, the writer
00:28:47and political analyst, I thank you for this discussion and clarification.
00:28:50You were with us via video call. Thank you very much. Joining us now,
00:28:54dear viewers, is Dr. Muhammad Jumaih, our country's ambassador
00:28:57to UNESCO. Dr. Muhammad, welcome.
00:29:00Welcome. Welcome, Doctor. Doctor,
00:29:02the escalation by the Houthi terrorist militia, also supported
00:29:06by Iran. Today, the Houthis
00:29:10are challenging the internal and external forces and killing.
00:29:13and destroy and mean they strike
00:29:17everything without oversight or accountability. Where do
00:29:20you think this militia wants to take Yemen and the region
00:29:24in your opinion?
00:29:26Thank you very much, my dear brother. Greetings to you and your guest.
00:29:30And, of course, there is not much
00:29:33more to say about the terrorism
00:29:37and criminality of these militias against Yemen
00:29:40and Yemenis. I mean, now when you write or read
00:29:43or analyze any analysis about the terrorism of
00:29:46this militia, the simplest Yemeni citizen will tell
00:29:50you that we know that.
00:29:53Meaning that all Yemenis
00:29:56militias to the economic, political,
00:29:59security, and military interior, and to Yemen's international reputation and shipping
00:30:02lanes. But that is not the question. The question
00:30:06is what is the other side doing? This other
00:30:09side is the legitimate leadership and the legitimate government and legitimacy in general.
00:30:13And also, what is required from the international
00:30:16and regional community? This is the question that should be posed
00:30:19before us in legitimacy and before the region,
00:30:23because this militia is not doing anything new when
00:30:25it targets Yemenis inside or when
00:30:29it targets maritime shipping lanes.
00:30:33It also targets neighboring countries,
00:30:38deny that. In fact, it boasts about it. Before, it used
00:30:42to perhaps conceal
00:30:46its loyalty or its strong relationship or its affiliation
00:30:49with Iran. But today, it boasts, and the
00:30:52Yemenis all know, and the Arabs, that it is an Iranian
00:30:56arm in Yemen and an advanced unit of the Revolutionary Guard in the region.
