The goals of Yemen’s resistance against the sea blockade of the Zionist regime
The naval attacks of the Yemeni army and popular committees can bring serious risks to the economy of the Zionist regime, because if the government of Sana'a prevents the passage of ships destined for occupied Palestine, the trade process of Tel Aviv with Asian countries will be stopped to a large extent. |
according to the report of the International Group Tasnim News, more than two months have passed since the war in Gaza and all efforts to establish a ceasefire It has led to permanent failure. In the meantime, various regional and international actors are intervening in Gaza with the aim of managing the war and reducing human casualties, but it seems that the United States and Israel are determined to evacuate the Gaza Strip from its Palestinian residents.
In the meantime, from the first days of the recent war, Lebanon’s Hezbollah targeted the northern borders of occupied Palestine in order to destroy the focus of the Zionist regime’s army, which led to repeated exchanges of fire between the parties. But in the meantime, the role of the Yemeni army is gradually becoming more prominent and it has posed strategic risks to the security of the international trade of the occupying Quds regime.
On October 10, only three days After the start of the Gaza war, the Yemeni government threatened that if America intervenes in the battle, they will fire their missiles and drones at Israel in coordination with the resistance axis. 9 days later, they launched attack drones and cruise missiles at Israel, mainly targeting the southern port of Eilat.
These attacks are repeated every few days. It could have escalated until on October 31, the Yemeni army fired a ballistic missile that Israel intercepted with the Arrow-2 defense system. Eilat is more than 1,800 kilometers from the Yemeni missile base near Sana’a and about 1,600 kilometers from the nearest territory under their control.
In other words, the Yemenis did what they could to disrupt the economic and maritime security of the Zionist regime in Bab al-Mandeb and its southern borders.
p dir=”RTL”>The effectiveness of these attacks can be seen in the statements of senior political and military officials of the Zionist regime. The senior leaders of the regime have announced that if the actions of the Yemenis are not stopped by international actors and institutions, Tel Aviv itself will launch retaliatory attacks.
The Zionists also announced a mechanism will create a maritime security system to protect their cargoes against the sea attacks of the Sana’a government. It should be noted that more than 57 million tons of the total 60 million tons of merchandise trade between the Zionist regime and the world is carried out through sea trade. And only 3 million tons are transported through Jordan’s land and air border, which has made this country more vulnerable to sea and coastal threats.
“Patrick Ryder” The spokesperson of the US Department of Defense announced last Tuesday that Washington is negotiating to create an international “maritime task force” consisting of 38 countries against the attacks of the Yemeni army. In front of the government of Sana’a, on Friday he considered this decision as a “worthless” threat that threatens the security of the region. , the economic pressures that come to this regime through the Bab al-Mandab strait can lead to an increase in war costs for the Zionist regime; Especially since most of the trade partners of the Zionist regime are East Asian countries.
According to the statistics of the Organization for Development and Cooperation, China is the first trade partner of the Zionist regime with 13 billion dollars. It is possible that most of this trade takes place through the sea and the Bab al-Mandab crossing.
The developments in the Bab al-Mandab strait bring serious risks to Israel’s economy, because if the Yemeni army prevent the passage of ships destined for Israel, trade with Asian countries will be stopped to a large extent, and in other words, this regime will be practically under economic siege.
Moreover, if The time of the ground war in the Gaza Strip – which some speculations estimate to be at least one to two months – as well as the slowing down of the trade of the Zionist regime with Asian countries and at the same time its internal consequences, including the compensation of the injured and the need to provide for the losses of the injured By the Central Bank of Israel, social resilience in the occupied territories will also be greatly reduced.
Also, the escalation of tension by Sana’a in the Red Sea indicates the occurrence of a deeper and more intense conflict that the US may and other countries get involved in it, and it puts the world trade at greater risk. This is the scenario that Tel Aviv is extremely afraid of, and that is why it is trying to change the equations of this battle.
