Yemeni PM: Operation 'Fajr Al-Yemen' advancing to secure Bab Al-Mandab

Yemen's Prime Minister, Shaya Mohsen Al-Zindani, stated on Saturday that the nation's Operation Fajr Al-Yemen is steadily advancing towards restoring state institutions and securing the Bab Al-Mandab region. The Prime Minister highlighted the ongoing progress made by the Southern Giants Brigades and National Shield Forces, backed by the Saudi-led Coalition to Restore Legitimacy, in their efforts to regain control over Bab Al-Mandab and Dhubab, as well as safeguard the Kahboub mountains, which were liberated from the Iran-backed Houthi militia.

Al-Zindani emphasized that these victories underscore the Yemeni people's resolve to end the coup and restore state institutions. He credited the sacrifices of the armed forces and the unwavering resilience of the Yemeni people as crucial to the fight to reclaim the state and establish security and stability throughout the country.

Furthermore, he denounced the Houthis' persistent targeting of civilians and civilian sites, including the recent attack on Aden International Airport, as well as continuous attacks in Taiz province, as indicative of a strategy rooted in violence, terrorism, and the exploitation of the country's resources, all aimed at disheartening the Yemeni people from their pursuit of freedom, dignity, and a law-abiding government.

The Prime Minister underscored the profound impact of the armed forces' significant sacrifices and the heroic actions of the popular resistance in Taiz and other provinces, which epitomize the Yemeni people's unwavering commitment to reclaiming their state, defending their land, and upholding national sovereignty. He reaffirmed that any attempts to impose the Iran-linked Houthi agenda will not weaken the people's determination to restore their national institutions.

Al-Zindani expressed gratitude for the support of brotherly countries within the Coalition to Restore Legitimacy, led by Saudi Arabia, and their steadfast backing of Yemen in its ongoing battle to restore the state and secure its stability.
