Yemeni Government Accuses Houthis of Fabrications and Creating Lies in What It Called a “Security Achievement”
Yemen Monitor/Newsroom:
The Yemeni government, on Saturday, accused the Houthi group of inventing a new narrative of lies and fabricated confessions in what the group called a “security achievement.”
The Minister of Information, Tourism, and Culture, Muammar Al-Eryani, asserted in a post on his “X” account that the Houthis are experiencing an unprecedented state of security exposure and are trying to cover it up with such fabrications. He accused the group of seeking to justify daily campaigns of repression and arrests in areas under its control under the pretext of “espionage for foreign parties,” and to cover up the Houthi militia’s unprecedented security vulnerability.
Al-Eryani stated that the Houthi group aims, through the fabrications it published, to boost the collapsing morale of its elements following a series of precise strikes that targeted its positions and leaders in Sana’a and its areas of control. He indicated that these strikes revealed a penetration that reached even the highest levels of the Houthi hierarchy.
The Minister considered the confessions broadcast by the group to be weak in content and full of contradictions. He noted that it is evident the detainees were coached with generic phrases to serve a ready-made narrative that lacks any realistic details, confirming that the goal is solely propaganda and internal mobilization.
He emphasized that the security reality in Sana’a and Houthi-controlled areas has been completely exposed for two years to satellites and modern reconnaissance and spy planes. He added that the technologies used to penetrate the Houthi system far exceed the primitive mindset of the group, which claims the penetration occurred via a camera installed in an “Elantra” car.
The Houthi group had announced this evening what it called a “security achievement,” in which it claimed to have exposed cells working with the US and Israel, and accused Saudi Arabia of harboring the cell’s leadership.
