Yemen’s Ansarullah warns of escalation if Israel abandons Gaza ceasefire

Yemen’s Ansarullah leader says the country is fully prepared to escalate operations if Israel fails to uphold the ceasefire agreement in Gaza.
“We will remain in full readiness to return to operations and to higher levels of escalation if the Israeli enemy resumes its aggression of mass extermination, blockade, annihilation, and starvation of the Palestinian people,” Abdul-Malik Badr al-Din al-Houthi said in a speech on Tuesday.
Yemen, he said, cannot remain silent at any stage and will not compromise on principled Qur’anic positions.
Houthi delivered his remarks on the occasion of the martyrdom of Lieutenant General Mohammad Abdulkarim al-Ghamari, the chief of staff of Yemen’s armed forces.
He said if martyrdom led to weakness or collapse, Yemen’s revolution would have ended in 2004 with the martyrdom of the leader, Hussein Badr al-Din al-Houthi.
“But the path continued, grew, and strengthened, guiding this great people within its faith identity so that its blessings, voice, and influence spread globally.”
Houthi said Yemen is now stronger than at any time in its history, and the country ranks first among Arab nations in military manufacturing and wartime production.
He said Yemen’s armed forces have steadily built capabilities and gained experience during years of conflict with Saudi and Israeli forces.
Yemen’s military industry now produces a wide range of weapons, from pistols and rifles to artillery, drones, and rockets, and continues to advance in missile and drone technology, Houthi said.
‘America failed in Yemen’
Houthi said Yemen’s gains were clearly demonstrated in naval battles with the Americans, and that the United States suffered disastrous defeats at sea, admissions even acknowledged by their own leaders, and evidenced by the withdrawal of five aircraft carriers.
Israel, alongside the Americans and the British, he said, also failed in their objectives as they were unable to eliminate the capabilities of the Yemeni people or force them to abandon their rightful and principled stance.
He said the enemies intensify their efforts to divert public attention from the central cause and the existential threat posed by Zionism.
Within the American and Israeli plan, Houthi said, lies a strategy to drown nations in crises and distractions, so that they abandon the right orientation that truly benefits them.
The Yemeni leader said the wickedness, criminality, and tyranny of the Zionists have been exposed more than ever over the past two years.
Through daily scenes of brutality, the entire world has come to recognize the corruption and inhumanity of the Zionist enemy and those allied with it, he said.
Houthi emphasized that exposing the enemy’s crimes, hatred, and lack of all moral and human values is of paramount importance, for it strengthens certainty in the righteousness of the resistance’s stance.
“After the agreement in Lebanon, the Israeli enemy continues its violations, treachery, broken covenants, crimes, and daily assaults,” he said.
“The Israeli enemy kills the Palestinian people every day, does not honor any pledge or covenant, and possesses no values, honesty, or fidelity.”
Houthi warned that ignoring the actions of the Israelis, Americans, and British, and the schemes of global Zionism, is no solution for the safety of the people.
He said the course taken by some Arab regimes is a deviation rooted in ignorance, offering no salvation for themselves or their nations.
The so-called “settlement” option, he added, has proven its failure time and again, and the Arabs have achieved nothing under the banners of “peace” and “peace initiatives.”
Inevitability of Israel’s demise
The Yemeni leader said the Israeli enemy is a loser, disgraced before the nations, and its weakness on the battlefield has been exposed.
Despite extermination and destruction, Houthi said, the enemy failed to recover its prisoners except through a swap deal, clear evidence that those blinded in their hearts exaggerate Israel’s strength.
“The weakness of the Israeli enemy manifested itself despite all it did against our dear fighting brothers in the Gaza Strip, who remain under severe siege with extremely limited capabilities and horrific abandonment by their nation.”
He said the Israeli enemy failed in its confrontation with Iran and was forced, within just 12 days, to beg the Americans to intervene and halt the escalation.
Houthi said Israel was compelled to cease its confrontation with Iran, yet some blinded hearts still portray it as victorious.
Houthi said Israel also failed to eliminate the resistance in Lebanon, which remained steadfast despite immense sacrifices.
The Yemeni leader said the massacres and atrocities committed by the Israeli enemy are not military or strategic successes, but rather proof of its failure.
Houthi said Hezbollah remained unbroken, steadfast in its mission and spirit, supported by the resilience of its popular base.
Yemen’s position is clear: one of great victory, steadfastness, and constructive growth in capabilities, Houthi stated.
Houthi said Yemenis believe in the inevitable outcomes of this conflict imposed upon the nation, and that the Israeli enemy is destined for failure, defeat, and disappearance.
“Among the inevitabilities is the demise of the Israeli enemy, the defeat of those who submitted to it, and the victory of those who responded to God and trusted in Him.”
