Sana’a Foreign Ministry Warns Riyadh: The Principle of Reciprocity Governs the Military Response, and If the Aggression Doesn’t Stop, What Is Coming Is Greater

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Sana’a affirmed that the principle of “reciprocity” has become the primary determinant of the nature of the military response to the continued escalation of the Saudi regime, stressing that dozens of martyrs and hundreds of wounded and the systematic destruction of the infrastructure place the Armed Forces before their inevitable responsibility to defend the Yemeni people.

Sana’a — Al-Khabar Al-Yemeni:

The statement of Sana’a’s Foreign Ministry noted that the Saudi regime has ignored for 12 years all the demands to lift the siege and stop targeting Sana’a International Airport, which was subjected to hundreds of airstrikes and the destruction of its infrastructure before the Israeli enemy completed its direct targeting.

The Foreign Ministry warned Riyadh that its military adventures and the militarization of the Bab al-Mandab area and turning it into an arena of confrontation will inflict on it severe strategic damages, affirming that “lifting the siege and ending the hostile activities is much less costly for Saudi Arabia than its failed adventures.”

In the same context, Sana’a’s Foreign Ministry deplored the suspicious silence of the international community toward Saudi Arabia’s militarization of Bab Al-Mandeb, which exposes the double standards and the UN positions that legitimize crimes through paid-for condemnations.

Within the framework of the protection measures and keenness on the safety of civilians, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs advised the airlines heading to the Saudi airports to coordinate immediately with the “Yemeni Humanitarian Operations Center,” considering that this coordination represents a disclaimer of the moral and legal responsibility of the airlines in light of the airspace and airports being a theater of operations.

On the regional level, Sana’a’s Foreign Ministry criticized the Qatari role, considering that the hostile political and media activities of the Qatari regime make it a partner in the blood and suffering of the Yemenis, and a sharp retreat from the role of mediation to the wrong alignment, calling on it to review its position.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs concluded its statement by directing a strongly worded message to the Saudi regime, affirming by saying: “Unless the Saudi enemy stops its aggression and its blatant intervention in Yemen, what is coming is greater, God willing, and if its criminality does not stop, the list will be long and its screaming will be the title of the coming phase.”
