Sana’a: The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates expressed the Yemeni Republic’s commendation of the honorable stance of the Iranian armed forces in responding to the American aggression and targeting its bases in the region.

According to Yemen News Agency, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also praised, in a statement issued, the great stance of the Iranian armed forces in deterring the Israeli enemy entity that targeted the Lebanese capital Beirut and in consolidating the principle of the unity of arenas. It affirmed the right of the Islamic Republic of Iran to respond to any aggressions targeting its territory and national security in the future.

The Ministry renewed its rejection of the continued hosting by some Gulf states of American military bases that target the region’s countries in service of the Zionist project and to protect the Israeli enemy entity. It condemned the attempt of those regimes to play the victim role and claim that they are the target of the Iranian response, while they provide cover, protection, and financial support to the invading and aggressing forces.

It reaffirmed that those regimes, with their policies, will inflict harm upon themselves and their peoples and will be the first to lose in the battle. The statement clarified that the battle being fought by the members of the nation is everyone’s battle, and the option of surrender is off the table, as the enemy’s bet on its military capabilities has failed.

The Ministry praised the state of steadfastness and resilience despite the suffering across the geography of the axis countries, from Iran to Lebanon, Palestine, Iraq, and finally to Yemen. It concluded its statement by affirming the steadfastness of Yemen’s principled and faith-based position alongside the brothers in the Islamic Republic of Iran.
