'Finger on the trigger': Yemen says decision made to stand with Iran against US-Israeli aggression

A senior official from Yemen's Ansarallah resistance movement has confirmed that the country is in complete coordination with Iran and the resistance axis amid the ongoing Israeli-American aggression against the Islamic Republic.

In an interview published on Saturday, Mohammed al-Bukhaiti, a member of Ansarallah's political bureau, said the decision has already been made to stand alongside the Islamic Republic in its confrontation with American and Israeli aggression.

He said that Yemen's participation in the war is "only a matter of time," emphasizing that there is full coordination among all resistance axis countries on this matter.

"Our hands are on the trigger," al-Bukhaiti stated, echoing the words of Ansarallah resistance movement leader Sayyed Abdulmalik al-Houthi, who had previously addressed Iran directly, declaring readiness to intervene whenever circumstances require.

Al-Bukhaiti stressed that they are closely monitoring the situation and are prepared to act against the aggressors.

The Ansarallah official firmly defended Iran's retaliatory strikes against American military assets in the region, asserting that Tehran has every right to target the occupation bases being used to launch attacks against it.

"All the accusations previously leveled against Iran have collapsed today," al-Bukhaiti said, "and the truth of Iran's position in support of the nation's causes has become clear to everyone."

Al-Bukhaiti issued an urgent call for all countries in the region to take a unified stance, stressing that all countries in the region “must condemn the American aggression and stand alongside Iran in this confrontation.”

He hastened to warn that the scope of the war extends far beyond Iran's borders, noting that the party being targeted today is not only Iran, but all Arab and Islamic countries.

Addressing the regional countries directly, he said it is a battle that has been “imposed upon us, and we must carry it forward until we impose our conditions."

The senior Ansarallah official also delivered a stark warning to Persian Gulf states regarding Washington's intentions, saying it has no concern for the security of the regional countries and only “wants to entangle them in wars against Iran."

He described the ongoing war as a "decisive battle" whose ultimate outcome "will be the victory of truth."

The war against Iran, launched on February 28 in the middle of indirect nuclear talks between Tehran and Washington, entered its 15th day on Saturday with no end in sight.

The main target of the aggression was the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei and some top-ranking military commanders, who were assassinated on the first day, triggering a powerful Iranian response.

In retaliation, Iranian armed forces have carried out more than 40 waves of Operation True Promise 4, decimating Israeli military sites in the occupied territories and US military bases scattered across the region.
