Senior Yemeni Ansarullah official Mohammad al-Bukhaiti announced the group has formally decided to militarily stand alongside Iran, with the "zero hour" for action to be declared at the appropriate time.
Following a week of unprecedented United States and Israeli airstrikes against Iranian military infrastructure, Yemen's Ansarullah movement has formally decided to enter the conflict in military support of Tehran.
Senior Ansarullah official Mohammad al-Bukhaiti announced that Yemen is operating in complete coordination with Iran and the broader Axis of Resistance. According to the Iranian news channel خبرفوری ࡆ اخبارفوری مذاکره ࡆ جنگ فوری, al-Bukhaiti stated, "The decision to stand militarily alongside Iran has been made, and zero hour (the start of action) will be announced at the appropriate time." This declaration was echoed by regional conflict monitor اخبار جنگ | ایران | افغانستان, which highlighted the direct strategic coordination between Sanaa and Tehran.
In an interview with Al Mayadeen, summarized by the pro-government channel حامیان پزشکیان, al-Bukhaiti emphasized that Yemen's active participation is strictly a matter of time. He noted that the group's leadership is closely monitoring the situation and that their hand is on the trigger, as directed by Ansarullah leader Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi.
Iranian state-affiliated media is framing Yemen's impending involvement as a severe vulnerability for Israel. The state-aligned فارس بینالملل و سیاست خارجی reported that over the past two weeks of the US and Zionist regime's war against Iran, the Yemeni front has heavily occupied Hebrew and American media attention. The channel noted that Israel is deeply concerned about the timing of Yemen joining the war alongside Iran and Hezbollah. Fars added that daily discussions in foreign media regarding the Yemeni front's imminent activation point to the Zionist regime's desire to launch a preemptive strike on Yemen, while warning that Yemen's military tactics and weaponry will be entirely different once it fully enters the current war.
The sources uniformly reflect Iranian state and pro-regime narratives, acting as megaphones for the Axis of Resistance. They explicitly use terminology like 'Zionist regime' and 'Axis of Resistance' to frame the conflict, reflecting a unified editorial stance that portrays Yemen's intervention as an inevitable and highly threatening development for Israel following the recent wave of US and Israeli strikes.
