After 8 years of failure, the kingdom found itself overwhelmed in the quagmire that the colonial powers, led by the United States and the Zionist entity, set for it and the Gulf countries, especially after it incurred huge military and economic losses estimated at billions of dollars.
At the beginning of the war on Yemen, Saudi Arabia bet on its military forces and its local and international allies, to achieve a quick victory in Yemen. The Kingdom also bet on supporting the hegemony of colonial powers to provide a card for international connivance of the crimes that will be committed in Yemen, in an effort to ensure “victory”.
The orgy of the Saudi regime did not end at mentioning a decisive and lightning battle in Yemen within months, as former coalition spokesman “Ahmed Asiri” announced on the third day of the war on Yemen the destruction of all radar systems and the destruction of 80% of the Yemeni ballistic missile capabilities, indicating that the battle will only take two weeks.
Saudi Arabia has paid billions of dollars in an attempt to achieve a quick victory, in purchasing more quality and advanced weapons, and providing foreign mercenaries from “Blackwater” and the Sudanese Janjaweed, in addition to the high operating costs, logistical support and money that the Kingdom gave to the colonial powers and international organizations.
Yemen's Steadfastness Blows US-Saudi Aggression
With the passage of the first months of the aggression, the facts of that battle proved that the Yemeni Armed Forces, despite the siege they faced, were able to withstand the aggression and inflict the coalition in general and Saudi Arabia in particular at all levels.
The recent report of the United Nations panel of experts, last September, confirmed that the Saudi army despite its bureaucratic weapons, and its intelligence services have proven that it is incapable of managing the war in Yemen.
The report pointed out that the confusion of the Saudi strategy and the fragility of its alliances with local and Gulf powers made the war backfire on it.
After the first months of the war passed, it was proven that the coalition’s victory became impossible, at that time Saudi Arabia had no choice but to consider other options based on negotiation and settlement with Sana’a forces.
By signing the initial truce with Sanaa forces in Geneva consultations on June 16, 2015, Saudi Arabia aimed to ensure the rearrangement of its ranks by recruiting foreign mercenaries from Sudan and Senegal and new local mercenaries, after the coalition and its old mercenaries failed to achieve their desired goals and incurred heavy losses.
To cover up the scandal of Saudi Arabia’s inability and failure to manage the war, Saudi Arabia reduced the intensity of the coalition’s military operation.
At that time, Saudi Arabia resorted again to calm to ensure the rearrangement of its local mercenaries, after the coalition forces were unable to advance towards Sana’a and incur heavy losses on the Nihm front, and a new ceasefire agreement was reached through Kuwaiti consultations in early August 2016.
The US-Saudi coalition took advantage of the ceasefire and quickly recruited new mercenaries from the terrorist groups of the “Al-Qaeda and Daesh” organizations to fight in their ranks against the Yemeni Army and Popular Committees.
Sana’a forces were able to impose their control over large areas in Yemen and in the Saudi depth, which resulted in the liberation of the entire fronts of Nihm, Al-Jawf and Al-Baidha governorates, large areas in Al-Dhalea, and control of 12 districts out of 14 districts in Marib.
With the Saudi war entering its eighth year, the Yemeni Armed Forces - according to numbers and facts - are in the victorious position as they turned the balance of military forces in their favor, especially after they achieved a great and remarkable development in the war industries and military and intelligence tactics inside Yemen and in the Saudi depth.
Brigadier Saree explained that this force relied on the accumulation of experience in the military institution, as well as benefiting from experiences in development. “The Rocketry Force now depends 100 percent on Yemeni expertise,” he confirmed.
The Air Defense units carried out 1,971 shooting down and injuring operations, and 2,250 repelling and interception operations.
The sniper unit carried out 65,915 operations since its activation; it has succeeded in sniping 941 Saudi officers and soldiers.
Observers of the Yemeni affairs confirmed that Saudi Arabia acquiesced after 8 years of failure and reap defeats, and after it was proven that it was impossible to achieve any military achievement on the ground, which prompted it to search for a truce that would pave the way for it to get out of the Yemeni quagmire.
In early April, the UN special envoy for Yemen, Hans Grundberg, announced the nationwide ceasefire, for the first time since 2016, saying the two-month truce would be eligible for renewal with the consent of parties. The truce meant to halt all military operations in the country and to bring the foreign military invasion to an end.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said the truce "must be a first step to ending Yemen’s devastating war," urging the warring parties to build on the opportunity to "resume an inclusive and comprehensive Yemeni political process."
The deal stipulates halting offensive military operations, including cross-border attacks, and allowing fuel-laden ships to enter Yemen’s lifeline al-Hudaydah port and commercial flights in and out of the airport in the capital Sana’a "to predetermined destinations in the region."
