Speaking to the Tasnim News Agency, the informed source said Yemeni Ansarullah, as it has announced since the first day of the Ramadan War (Iran’s defense against US-Israeli aggression), is on full alert and ready to join the battlefield.
“If there is a need to control the Bab al-Mandab Strait to further punish the enemy, the heroes of Yemeni Ansarullah are fully prepared to play a key role,” the source said, stressing the fact that Iran alone has the ability to produce a credible threat in Bab al-Mandab Strait.
The informed source at the same time noted that Yemeni Ansarullah has already shown that closing the Bab al-Mandab Strait and exerting the will of the Resistance movement in the Red Sea is an easy task for them.
Earlier, a military source had told Tasnim that "in case the enemy decides to take provocative measures in southern Iran, new fronts could open that will surprise the enemy."
“We are constantly monitoring and keeping an eye on the enemy front’s preparations and developments,” the source said.
“If the enemy wants to take action on land in the Iranian islands or anywhere else in our lands or to inflict costs on Iran with naval movements in the Persian Gulf and the Sea of Oman, we will open other fronts for them as a surprise so that their action will not only be of no benefit to them but will also double their costs.”
