Al-Akhbar reports on US direct military involvement in Battle of Ma’rib.
The Lebanese newspaper wrote that the United States, which had previously been indirectly involved in the war against Yemen, has now entered the battlefield directly, so that it may be able to save its allies, led by Saudi Arabia.
The good progress of the Yemeni army and popular committees in the battle of Ma’rib has allowed the United States, which previously had indirect support for the Saudi coalition, to enter the field directly with its forces.
“US military involvement in the war against Yemen is out of the question, especially since Sanaa believed from the beginning that it was a war with American goals from the beginning of its declaration in the spring of 2015, and that to this day,” Al-Akhbar reported. The United States has stopped it because it has not achieved the desired results. Before Joe Biden took office, the United States acknowledged its indirect involvement in the Yemeni war with logistical, technical and intelligence support, target bank updates, fighter refueling, and the presence of US and British experts on the Saudi-Yemeni border, as well as the Operations Room. .
But what is new today is the news that the American network “Al-Hurra” quoted a Pentagon official as saying that US special forces are involved in the ongoing battles in Yemen to support the Saudi coalition. A public confession that has more than one message Perhaps the most important of these messages is that the developments on the ground have forced the direct entry of the United States into the war in Yemen alongside its allies. By the time the war reached a turning point, Washington had estimated that its allies, led by Riyadh, were in a state of rapid collapse.
Al-Akhbar added that if the information indicates that the United States is stationed on more than one front and in the region, especially Al-Rayyan air base, Bawzir city in Hadramaut province, Al-Ghaiza airport and Nastoon port in Al-Mohra province, as well as transportation. US and Israeli intelligence forces are heading to Muon Island in Bab al-Mandeb and the city of Al-Makha, but Al-Hurra news reports indicate the importance of the battle for Ma’rib.
Politically, the US move reflects the failure of the current government, like previous governments, to surrender to the Yemeni negotiating will, despite all the pressure in recent months. Moreover, the United States can no longer cover its position and actions by claiming to be a mediator or claiming peace.
