Hezbollah General Secretary Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah has said that “the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in the first direct confrontation with Ansarullah, started crying and asking for US, UK, French, and ‘Israeli’ protection.”
This came during live interview on Tuesday with Iran’s Arabic-language al-Alam news network.
“Since its establishment, the UAE has bought missiles, drones, and military technologies worth tens of billions of dollars; however, in the first direct confrontation with Ansarullah they started crying and asking for US, UK, French, and ‘Israeli’ protection,” he said.
“The Emirati government has sought support from the world’s superpowers and the Israeli regime,” Nasrallah said.
Sayyid Nasrallah strongly advised Abu Dhabi to wind down its involvement in the Saudi war on Yemen, in order to resolve the security crisis that it has come to face.
Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah also noted that the Saudi-led coalition “has been intensifying its attacks against Yemen in order to prevent the liberation of the strategic west-central province of Ma’rib.”
