The strategic defense operation aims to foil Saudi-led attempts to launch land attacks across Yemen, Luqman said, according to Yemeni SABA news agency
In this context the Yemeni general revealed that the defense operation will also include swift attacks by the Yemeni allied forces in the Saudi depth and on Saudi posts on the border region with Yemen, in a bid to exhaust the Saud-led forces.
Luqman on the other hand said that the Yemeni forces have recently resorted to air defense system in order to confront the Saudi-led warplanes launching airstrikes and killing Yemeni civilians.
The spokesman stressed that the Yemeni forces will firmly confront the Saudi-led aggression in a bid to defend their country against the Saudi invaders.
Yemen has been since March 2015 under a brutal aggression by Saudi-led coalition, in a bid to restore power to fugitive former president Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi.
Tens of thousands of Yemenis have been injured and martyred in Saudi-led strikes, with the vast majority of them are civilians.
However, the allied forces of the army and popular committees established by Ansarullah revolutionaries have been heroically confronting the aggression with all means.
The Saudi-led coalition – which also includes UAE, Bahrain, Egypt, Morocco, Jordan, Sudan and Kuwait – has been also imposing a blockade on the impoverished country’s ports and airports as a part of the aggression.
