Reuters' claim about Saudi preparations for an attack on Ansar Allah 🔹Reuters news agency has claimed that Saudi Arabia is considering a plan to initiate military operations against Yemen's Ansar Allah with the aim of reclaiming coastal areas and removing the Bab el-Mandeb Strait from the control of this group. 🔹Regional and Western sources have indicated that this operation may begin in the coming weeks, and Yemeni forces supported by Riyadh will be at the forefront of it. 🔹Reuters, in a report citing 6 informed individuals about the planning, wrote that Saudi Arabia is considering two options for this operation: a limited attack on the areas surrounding Bab el-Mandeb or a broader operation on multiple fronts simultaneously in the provinces of Al-Bayda, Marib, Taiz, and Al-Jawf. 🔹According to this report, if the extensive plan is executed, more than 100,000 Yemeni forces may be mobilized for the operation. 🔹Yemeni forces under Riyadh's oversight will carry out ground operations, and the Saudi air force will support them. 🔹Reuters states that one of the main objectives of this operation is to push Ansar Allah back from areas that the group rapidly seized along the Red Sea coast last month, ultimately gaining control of the Bab el-Mandeb Strait.
