The Yemeni Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates has condemned the Saudi regime’s media propaganda, declaring that Riyadh’s "illusory victories" are crumbling as the Yemeni Armed Forces consolidate absolute control over the strategic western coast and Taiz province.

In a statement released on Monday evening, the Ministry exposed the deep complicity of regional media outlets in amplifying Saudi falsehoods, warning that the era of Saudi hegemony in Yemen is rapidly drawing to a close.

The Ministry criticized the Saudi regime's "methodology of lying," noting that it has deliberately dragged numerous media organizations into a "swamp of falsehood and depravity."

"The reality of these media outlets has been revealed to their deceived audiences as they adopted these fabricated narratives," the statement read.

The Ministry specifically called out the Qatari-owned network Al Jazeera and its affiliated channels, asserting that "what the Saudi enemy has achieved is nothing but illusory victories on the front of Al Jazeera and its sister channels."

This media blitz, according to Sana'a, is a desperate attempt by Riyadh to mask its catastrophic military failures on the ground and maintain a facade of relevance in a conflict it has decisively lost.

Firm control over Taiz

Countering the fabricated narratives of mercenary advances, the Yemeni Foreign Ministry reaffirmed the military reality on the ground.

"The western coast and all western districts of Taiz province are firmly protected by the men of the Yemeni Armed Forces," the statement emphasized.

This declaration comes as Yemeni forces continue their lightning ground offensive, recently capturing strategic highlands in Taiz and severing critical supply lines for Saudi-backed factions, effectively tightening the siege and paving the way for the province's complete liberation.

Concluding the statement with a powerful historical verdict, the Ministry declared that the current military and political momentum in Yemen signals the definitive end of Saudi interference.

"The dawn of Yemen witnesses the imminent sunset of the Saudi regime, turning the page on its black history in Yemen," the statement concluded.

Since launching its US-backed military aggression against Yemen in March 2015, the Saudi-led coalition has relied heavily on a sophisticated media apparatus to project an image of strength and inevitable victory.

Yemen forces repel Saudi-backed militias near Bab al-Mandab, inflicting heavy losses

Yemeni forces say they have repelled an advance by Saudi-backed mercenaries toward positions near the strategic Bab al-Mandab Strait.

Outlets like Al Jazeera have frequently served as a megaphone for Riyadh, amplifying unverified claims of territorial gains by Saudi-backed mercenaries while downplaying the coalition's staggering losses and the devastating humanitarian toll of the war.

However, the reality on the battlefield has starkly contradicted these media narratives.

Over the past year, the Yemeni Armed Forces have launched a series of highly effective, lightning offensives that have shattered the illusion of Saudi military superiority.

Most notably, Yemeni forces have secured sweeping victories along the southwestern coast, consolidating absolute control over the strategic Bab al-Mandeb Strait—a vital global shipping chokepoint that Riyadh had hoped to dominate.

Simultaneously, the relentless advance on Taiz has trapped Saudi-backed militias, cutting off their logistical lifelines to the south and exposing the complete fragility of the puppet administration.
