Yemen: There has been a reduction in the frequency of Yemen’s operations against Israeli navigation and its ships, or vessels associated with it, in support for Gaza, in the Red Sea, Arabian Sea, and Gulf of Aden over the past few days.

This sudden operational decrease did not occur due to weakness, despair, or retreat from continuing the serious jihadist duty against the forces of arrogance and imperialism, especially the U.S. and Israel. 

Nor did it come as a response to continuous American pressure on the Yemeni leadership in Sana’a to stop these operations immediately, taking advantage of the country’s difficult economic situation after ten years of Saudi-Emirati aggression and siege, led by the U.S.

None of this is even remotely possible. The reduction in Yemeni maritime operations came as a result of the complete disruption of Israeli navigation in these seas and the despair of the Israeli enemy in its attempt to navigate the seas safely, especially from the Red Sea, Arabian Sea, and Gulf of Aden. 

This was confirmed by the leader, Sayyed Abdulmalik al-Houthi, during his weekly speech on Thursday, November 28, 2024, where he stated: "The Israeli enemy has become desperate and has completely altered its maritime routes," and that during this period, there was no movement of Israeli maritime vessels, nor of vessels from other countries carrying goods for Israel. 

He also confirmed that Yemen has achieved complete control over preventing Israeli maritime navigation in the Red Sea, reaching 100%.

The leader also emphasized that despite the reduction in maritime operations against Israeli navigation, Yemen continues to perform its jihadist duty at a high pace in support of Gaza and its resistance, through continued strikes on Israeli depths using missiles and drones, as well as large popular marches. He pointed out that the Yemeni people are not satisfied with the current level of action, although it is what is feasible.

He also mentioned that there is a continuous effort to do what is stronger and greater, and that what is currently being done has its effect on the Israeli enemy, as well as its partners, and on the U.S., which launched a military aggression against our country.

What does the complete disruption of Israeli navigation in the Red Sea and Arabian Sea mean?

Since the start of Yemen's maritime operations against Israeli navigation in early November 2023, the world has witnessed a large number of operations carried out by the Yemeni Armed Forces, which have undoubtedly had a clear impact on the Israeli economy. First, they successfully changed the regional military equation in favor of the Palestinian resistance in Gaza and the resistance axis. Second, they created a balance of power between the Axis of Evil (the U.S., Israel, and the West) and the Axis of Resistance, after managing to impose a complete maritime blockade on Israeli navigation and its supporting forces led by the U.S. and the U.K. This led to three U.S. aircraft carriers fleeing from the Yemeni maritime operations zone.

This success, of course, has translated into effectiveness in impacting the Israeli economy by inflicting additional losses and burdens. The Yemeni blockade, according to Hebrew media itself, has caused significant damage to the Israeli economy, including:

The end of American dominance over international navigation in the Red Sea and Arabian Sea, evidenced by the escape of several U.S., British, and European destroyers and aircraft carriers from the area of Yemeni maritime operations. This indicates the imposition of a new deterrence equation in the confrontation between the Axis of Evil and the Axis of Resistance. This equation has successfully forced the Israeli enemy and its supporters to retreat, and the war is no longer a simple matter as it once was. As the Pentagon itself said, the “Houthis” are not joking.

The American defense news site "19FortyFive," confirmed that the U.S. military suffered a crushing defeat in the Red Sea at the hands of the Yemeni Armed Forces. The report clarified that the Yemeni forces successfully prevented the U.S. from reaching the Red Sea by using their innovative long-range precision missiles and low-cost drones, and that these Yemeni operations are considered one of the most important turning points in military history.

In addition, the Hebrew newspaper "The Marker" published a report last Sunday highlighting the growing threat posed by Yemen to the security of the Zionist entity and the difficulty of countering this threat.

The report noted that on the night of July 19, a drone appeared on the shores of Tel Aviv and killed an Israeli while he was sleeping, near the U.S. embassy. This exposed the weakness of the security system, as no one had expected that this small, slow-moving drone, launched from Yemen over 2,000 kilometers away, would be able to evade Israel's advanced air defense systems, fly inside Tel Aviv, kill one person, injure ten others, and spread panic.

The report added that the attack not only demonstrated the operational capabilities of the Houthis from Yemen but also forced the Israeli security establishment, which was on the verge of collapse, to realize that "Israel" must find its own solutions to eliminate the threat coming from Yemen, after the United States and Britain had stopped offering military support.

All of this means that the skeptics should swallow their tongues and review their calculations carefully, as the American and British pressure and aggression against Yemen and its free men, who firmly believe in the cause of the nation, to stop their maritime operations, means that their operations have achieved their intended effects, transcended any doubts, and have become an undeniable reality.
