A senior official of the Houthis (Ansar Allah) warned on April 13 that the group will respond to “ground aggression” against Yemen with fierce resistance and turn the country into “hell” for the “aggressors.”
“The enemy’s options in Yemen have failed. Neither bombing nor American aggression will stop supporting Gaza,” wrote Mohammed Ali al-Houthi, a member of the Yemeni Supreme Political Council, in a post on the X social network.
Al-Houthi went on to stress that “no ground military operation will succeed. It will face hell and the power of the righteous.”
He also pointed out that it would be mistaken to test the already tested Yemenis, referring to the failure of the Saudi-led Arab coalition’s operation against the Houthis.
“America must know that its continued aggression is a continuation of the erosion of deterrence and exhaustion, and it will lose any future battle,” he added.
The U.S. military resumed strikes against Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen on March 15 on orders from President Donald Trump, who said that the large-scale operation was launched in response to the group’s renewed attacks on shipping in the Red Sea. Since then, around 90 people, including commanders of the Houthis and civilians, have been killed.
Overnight, another wave of U.S. strikes hit Yemen. According to the Houthi-linked al-Masirah TV, five strikes targeted a vocational training institute in al-Sawma’ah district in the central province of al-Bayda, three struck the al-Sahlin area in al-Salem district of the northern province of Saada, and two others hit al-Munirah district in the western province of al-Hodeidah.
So far, the U.S. has reportedly spent over a billion dollars on the operation in Yemen. However, the Houthis remain undeterred. The group continues to launch attacks against Israel and the Red Sea remains for the most part closed for commercial shipping.
This failure led to speculation of more escalation by the Trump administration against the Houthis, possibly including ground operations in Yemen.
While the U.S. would lead such operations, the forces on the ground would be mostly made up of local armed factions loyal to the internationally recognized Yemeni government and backed by Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. This would reignite the war in Yemen, but that’s a risk Trump may be willing to take.
The Houthis have been preparing for a ground confrontation with the U.S. and its allies in Yemen since it began launching attacks in support of the Gaza Strip more than a year ago.

uncle sam to scared to commit his peons for a direct confrontation on the ground instead will use proxy cannon fodder.
oh please, please send in the marines so that they will get their asses kicked.🤗
zog may well do that. they’re only expendable goyim, after all.
trillions for a war in iraq more trillions for afghan war 40 billion in aid this year all for zionism while the standard of living for the 60% of amercans most affected by inflation continues to decline. dump the zionists and the problem will be solved.
you cannot “dump” your master. you have to get rid of it. and no vote will help you to do that.
bring it on, donny! you can do it! go for it! show those sand ni**ers/ towel heads/ camel jockeys (delete as appropriate) what’s what! keep your joo donors happy! maybe nuttyyahoo will let you lick his boots and kiss his ass again! it’ll be a cakewalk! it’ll all be over by christmas! oh what a lovely war!
“the internationally recognised yemeni government.” this is a saudi puppet ensconced in a luxury hotel in shady wahabia. he did win an election (great achievement, he was the only candidate allowed.) his period in office ended, and he resigned, not once but twice. then he left the country years ago. but he is still the “recognised president”, like gweedo in venezuela, like tikhanovskaya in belarus.
not just any puppet, a saudi backed dictator, a corrupt unpopular one that was and is collaborating with al qaeda.
only a sucker would send american troop into a yemen meat grinder sacrificing american soldiers for zionism . let them fight their own wars that they create.
us soldiers are happy to die for israel, according to their us general in israel. nice that the goyim know their place, serving the chosen folk.
thomas jefferson warned of fighting a ground war in yemen… or any foreign quagmine. for good reason.
trump has illegally chained americans to global zionism without consent to be used as goyim much like ukies to be looted of life and money for zionist goals.
trump is not too uhh you know
sandal shoe boys knows if you worry you die if you don’t worry you die so why worry.because being friend of france,britain,usa is fatal being their enemy is dangerous.let the beat goes on.
shooting at the us navy is a really bad idea, just sayin’. now they know where you are. you should probably stop. surrendering unconditionally might help you live longer.
that’s it, they should surrender unconditionally and thus live longer
you’re a real font of wisdom aren’t you ?
the iran nuclear deal that would satisfy all stakeholders
a. it must be passed into law by the us congress to make unilateral cancellation difficult
b. it must dismantle iran’s nuclear program to the ground
c. sanctions must be lifted “completely” before the dismantling begins
d. the dismantling must be gradual, spanning at least a decade or more

they’ll use the idiots in the us military for most of the ground fighting with constant air support. they’ll try to push in further and further to sana while the gulf arab proxies try to push in from another direction. the houthi will need more and better anti-tank missiles and drones.
why hasn’t south front shown the video footage of yemen forces striking us navy vessels that were attacking yemen?
