The Houthis (Ansar Allah) have called on Egypt to distance itself from the Saudi-led war on Yemen, which has been ongoing for more than eight years.
Hussein al-Ezzi, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs in the Houthi-led government in Yemen, made the call on December 21, after Egypt took command of the Combined Maritime Forces-153 (CMF-153).
The CMF-153 was established by the United States and several Arab states earlier this year to counter smuggling and confront illegal activities, especially terrorist activities, in the Red Sea, Bab al-Mandab and Gulf of Aden. The Egyptian military assumed command of the forces on December 13.
“I hope that beloved Egypt will distance itself from any hostile actions against Sanaa,” al-Ezzi wrote on Twitter. “We frankly love Egypt and we do not want it to be harmed, but we also will not accept turning our waters into waste water or an open platform to harm the interests of our people.”
Al-Ezzi, who also heads the Houthis’ Political and External Relations Department, went on to say that the Yemenis harm only those who want to harm Yemen.
Today, the Houthis control much of Yemen’s Red Sea coast and possess a large arsenal of suicide drones and anti-ship missiles that allows them to hit naval targets in Bab al-Mandab and Gulf of Aden.
Egypt has been an inactive member of the Saudi-led coalition against the Houthis since its formation. The country has not yet taken any military action against the group in Yemen, so far. Any change in this situation could put Cairo on course for a standoff for the Houthis.

King James Version
6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
Egypt be carefull..!The flying birds are very strong weapons. Its iranian süper 142 shahed.! Really sensetive and modern uav. … very hard to shoot down it. İran have own 14900 of this model. Very high number. Also 7500 in syria….. and yemen 4000 for huties.. 6000 in lebanon. 2500 in iraq. Each one 75 kg war head.
Will Egypt support Houthis in the end?
It is so ridiculously easy for the Zionist USA to make Muslims kill each other instead of sacrificing their own forces.
The method has been used since the time of the Crusaders and illiterate people do not understand anything and do not feel exploited either.
The good thing is that it is good entertainment for normal thinking people in the West to watch the theater of war.
‘The CMF-153 was established by the United States and several Arab states earlier this year to counter smuggling and confront illegal activities’….Established by the US is all one needs to know.
They are combating terrorist activities in the Red Sea area. It seems to me that the CMF and its affiliates are the terrorists and are intent on moving forces into the area to control the Bab al-Mandeb strait.
Ah, so THAT’s why Egypt isn’t around in the Ezekiel 38-39 war.
