In a major development, a spokesman for Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) has stated that recent “prompt” missile attacks by Yemen’s Ansarullah resistance movement have significantly altered Israel’s strategic calculations. This comes as the Israeli regime was previously buoyed by the situation in Syria.
Brigadier General Ali Mohammad Naeini, who heads the IRGC’s Public Relations Department, made these remarks on Thursday amidst Israel’s ongoing aggression against Syria and Yemen’s sustained missile barrages targeting the occupied territories.

“The powerful measures by Yemen’s Ansarullah movement showed that the resistance front is self-reliant and independent in various fields, and enjoys unparalleled capabilities to respond to the crimes of the Zionist regime,” Naeini stated.
The IRGC commander further emphasized that global media outlets are actively targeting the resistance movement and disseminating propaganda in an effort to silence its voice. He stressed the need to form a broad media front to confront those opposing the resistance in an innovative manner.
Yemenis have openly declared their support for Palestine’s struggle against the Israeli occupation since the regime launched its devastating war on Gaza on October 7, 2023, which has so far claimed the lives of at least 45,361 Palestinians, mostly women and children.
Ansarullah has also been targeting ships linked to ‘Israel’, the United States, and the United Kingdom in a bid to force an end to Tel Aviv’s ongoing aggression against Gaza.
The Yemeni Armed Forces have vowed to continue their attacks until Israel’s ground and aerial aggression in Gaza come to an end.
