Yemen’s Ansarullah movement says it is ready for a “long-term confrontation” with the United States and the United Kingdom.

“We are prepared for a long-term confrontation with the forces of tyranny. The Americans, the British, and those who coordinated with them must realize the power of the sovereign Yemeni decision and that there is no debate or dispute over it,” Mohamed al-Atifi, commander of Yemen’s Ansarullah forces, said in a statement.
