The Deputy Prime Minister of the National Salvation Government for Defence and Security Affairs, Lieutenant-General Jalal al-Rowishan, has on Monday confirmed that Sana’a forces are keen on the security of international navigation.
Lieutenant-General al-Rowishan indicated in a press statement that “Yemen was not the initiator of the aggression” and that its response only affects the aggressor.
He stressed that “the Yemeni people will not stand by and their wealth is looted for the benefit of the Saudi-led coalition countries, while they live without salaries and under siege.”
“The military parades of the Yemeni army carry a message of reassurance to the people that the military and security institutions are ready to protect land and wealth and the independence of political decision,” he added.
