Mahmoud Ahmed Salem Al-Subaihi, a member of the Presidential Leadership Council, stated that the joint forces, comprising the Giants Brigades, the Shield of the Homeland forces, Support and Reinforcement forces, the National Resistance, and the Tihama Resistance, represent the vanguard in confronting the Iranian-backed Houthi militia and safeguarding state institutions. Al-Subaihi's remarks were conveyed by the official Saba Agency.
He highlighted the heroic stands undertaken by the armed forces and popular resistance across various fronts, characterizing them as embodiments of sacrifice and national duty. Al-Subaihi noted that the resilience of fighters on the West Coast, the Al-Madaribah and Ras Al-Ara fronts, and other confrontation axes has thwarted Houthi schemes.
The joint forces are playing a pivotal role in repelling Houthi attacks and defending liberated areas. Al-Subaihi detailed the expansion of confrontation lines towards Al-Wazi'iyah, Al-Aghbarah, Al-Muhawlah, Al-Mashawlah, and Al-Ka'la'ah, extending to Al-Zakirah, Al-Maqaramah, Al-Zaza'a, and Al-Zarīqah.
Al-Subaihi also commended the sacrifices of the people of Al-Subaihah and various tribes and fighters engaged in confronting the Houthis. He specifically mentioned that the tribes of Al-Aghbarah, Al-Muhawlah, Al-Mashawlah, Al-Ka'la'ah, Al-Shabaikah, and Al-Alfamah have collectively sustained over 170 martyrs and 700 wounded in defense of the nation.
Emphasizing the importance of consolidating military and security efforts, Al-Subaihi called for continued support for the stationed forces. He praised the role of the National Resistance and the joint forces on the Al-Mansurah, Al-Miliwi, and Al-Zaza'a fronts, acknowledging their sacrifices in confronting the Houthi militias.
Al-Subaihi concluded by asserting the continuation of the national battle until the complete liberation of Yemeni territory and the restoration of state institutions. He lauded the cohesion of the forces and the popular resistance, as well as their unwavering determination to confront the Houthi militia.
