It goes beyond financing, arming, and training to include direct supervision, participation in planning and operational management, and the development of the militia\u2019s military capabilities.<\/p>\n<p>The Ministry stresses that this unlawful foreign military presence constitutes a flagrant violation of the sovereignty of the Republic of Yemen and the principles of international law. It affirms the responsibility of the Iranian regime for directing this intervention through members of the Revolutionary Guard Corps and Hezbollah, and for exploiting Yemeni territory in service of its regional projects at the expense of the security and stability of the Yemeni people.<\/p>\n<p>The Ministry further affirms that the involvement of these elements in supporting the militia\u2019s military operations has contributed to the killing of Yemenis and their forced displacement from their homes, while exacerbating the humanitarian suffering of the population, particularly in Taiz, where the continued siege and attacks on civilians further deepen the humanitarian crisis and threaten the basic conditions of life.<\/p>\n<p>The Ministry warns that the danger posed by this intervention extends beyond Yemen\u2019s borders and constitutes a direct threat to regional and international security, as well as to freedom of navigation and global trade in the southern Red Sea and the Bab al\u2011Mandab Strait. The provision of ballistic missiles, drones, and explosive\u2011laden fast boats to the militia, together with the expertise required to develop and employ these capabilities, increases the risks to shipping, vital maritime routes, and the interests of countries in the region and around the world.<\/p>\n<p>The Ministry calls on the international community, foremost among them the United Nations Security Council, to assume their responsibilities by condemning these interventions and taking practical measures to halt the flow of weapons and military expertise to the Houthi militia, enforce relevant resolutions, and hold accountable the states, entities, and individuals involved in supporting these activities in accordance with international law, in a manner that protects Yemen\u2019s sovereignty, safeguards the security of its people, and preserves regional and international peace and security.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-40679\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mofa-ye.org\/Pages\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/design-hd-47-380x1024.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"380\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mofa-ye.org\/Pages\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/design-hd-47-380x1024.png 380w, https:\/\/www.mofa-ye.org\/Pages\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/design-hd-47-148x400.png 148w, https:\/\/www.mofa-ye.org\/Pages\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/design-hd-47-768x2072.png 768w, https:\/\/www.mofa-ye.org\/Pages\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/design-hd-47-759x2048.png 759w, https:\/\/www.mofa-ye.org\/Pages\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/design-hd-47-scaled.png 949w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 380px) 100vw, 380px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Ministry of Foreign and Expatriate Affairs of the Republic of Yemen expresses its strong condemnation of the continued blatant military interference by Iran\u2019s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and the terrorist organization Hezbollah in Yemen\u2019s internal affairs, and of their role in supporting the Houthi terrorist militia and enabling it to continue its attacks &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":40395,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[106],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-40672","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-press-releases"],"acf":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.mofa-ye.org\/Pages\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-10-18-at-12.38.40-PM-1.jpeg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mofa-ye.org\/Pages\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40672","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mofa-ye.org\/Pages\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mofa-ye.org\/Pages\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mofa-ye.org\/Pages\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mofa-ye.org\/Pages\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=40672"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.mofa-ye.org\/Pages\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40672\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":40680,"href":"https:\/\/www.mofa-ye.org\/Pages\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40672\/revisions\/40680"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mofa-ye.org\/Pages\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/40395"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mofa-ye.org\/Pages\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=40672"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mofa-ye.org\/Pages\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=40672"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mofa-ye.org\/Pages\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=40672"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
