Sana'a: The Government of Change and Construction faced numerous challenges last week amid escalating U.S. and Israeli aggression. It exerted significant efforts to overcome these challenges and mitigate their impact on citizens. In the context of confronting the American aggression against the country and defending the oppressed Palestinian people, the armed forces successfully targeted key locations, including airports and an American aircraft carrier.
According to Yemen News Agency, the Republic of Yemen is actively engaged in the battle of "the promised conquest and holy jihad," supporting the Palestinian people in Gaza. The Government of Change and Reconstruction emphasized that Yemen's military capabilities are evolving with each act of aggression, enabling them to respond effectively to external threats. This stance has been bolstered by recent military successes, including the downing of American drones and F-18 aircraft.
The operations of the armed forces have forced a halt to U.S. aggression, representing a significant shift in the power dynamics. Minister of Information Hashem Sharaf al-Din noted that this victory has enhanced Yemen's international influence and demonstrated its ability to confront major powers.
In response to Israeli actions, the armed forces have imposed a comprehensive ban on air travel to and from Israeli airports. The Humanitarian Coordination Centre has issued official notifications to civil aviation authorities about the risks to air navigation at these locations.
Following attacks on vital infrastructure, including Sana'a Airport and Hodeida Port, the government has mobilized efforts to rehabilitate these facilities. Engineering teams are working at an accelerated pace to restore operations and ensure the flow of goods. Similarly, efforts are underway to repair damage to power stations and cement factories.
Politically, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates has been active in communicating with the international community, calling for accountability for the destruction caused by Israeli aggression. Foreign Minister Gamal Amer has briefed key international figures on these developments, emphasizing the need for immediate action.
The Ministry of Justice and Human Rights has urged the Security Council to hold an emergency meeting to address the aggression, stressing the importance of protecting civilians. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Agriculture is implementing projects to bolster local production and environmental sustainability, while the government is promoting small and medium-sized enterprises through an upcoming electronic platform.
Efforts to enhance institutional performance include ongoing training programs and initiatives to merge and update public service units. Anti-corruption measures are also being implemented, with field visits planned to assess public service delivery.
In preserving Yemen's cultural heritage, a partnership agreement has been signed to restore historic buildings and monuments. Additionally, the government is prioritizing the needs of retirees and people with special needs, ensuring ongoing support and services.
Overall, the Government of Change and Construction is actively addressing the challenges posed by external aggression while focusing on infrastructure rehabilitation, economic development, and social welfare.
