Hezbollah has rejected allegations by the so-called Yemeni presidential leadership council (PLC) that the Lebanese resistance movement has deployed military experts to assist the Yemeni Armed Forces in planning and directing military operations.

In a statement released on Wednesday, Hezbollah described the claims as “completely baseless” with “no factual foundation.”

The movement also rejected assertions that its fighters were helping the Yemeni military develop its weapons capabilities or training Yemeni servicemen.

Hezbollah stressed that Yemen possesses the capabilities, resources and expertise necessary to defend its homeland and sovereignty against Saudi aggression, threats and blockade.

They “do not need support or intervention from outside,” the Lebanese resistance movement pointed out.

The statement said Yemenis had convincingly demonstrated these capabilities through their resistance to American and Israeli strikes and their solidarity with Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

Hezbollah also underscored that “serious and responsible dialogue among Yemenis is the only genuine way” to resolve disputes and address outstanding issues while preserving Yemen’s unity, sovereignty and stability.

It warned against attempts by the enemies of the Muslim world to foment tensions among peoples and undermine the unity of regional countries.

Hezbollah says it has no presence or affiliations whatsoever on the Syrian territory.

The PLC's interior minister, Major General Ibrahim Haidan,  claimed in a statement on Tuesday that the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) and Hezbollah had deployed 21 experts to back the Yemeni army.

He further asserted that 14 members of the group are from the IRGC and seven from Hezbollah.

The latest escalation between Yemen and Saudi Arabia followed a Saudi airstrike on Sana’a International Airport in July.

In response, the Yemeni government declared a maritime blockade against Saudi Arabia, in retaliation for the kingdom’s “unjust and oppressive siege” of Yemen, which has lasted nearly 12 years.

The Yemeni Armed Forces reported a number of successful operations aimed at Saudi-linked vessels in the Red Sea following the announcement. They have also carried out retaliatory strikes against targets deep inside Saudi territory.

In March 2015, Saudi Arabia and its allies initiated a blockade on Yemen, launching a comprehensive military campaign that was bolstered by military, political, and logistical support from the United States and various Western nations.

While hundreds of thousands of Yemenis have lost their lives, Saudi Arabia has not succeeded in its primary objective of reinstating a puppet regime in Yemen that aligns with its interests.
