Saudi activist: UAE cannot afford week-long war with Yemen

SANAA, Jan. 18 (YPA) – The Saudi activist, Shafi Al-Ajil, on Tuesday directed advice to the UAE to stay away from the Yemeni arena, and not to continue the war there.

“The UAE cannot bear a week’s war of missiles and drones, a catastrophic and historical mistake, if the UAE enters its head in a war that is difficult to end,” Al-Ajil said in a series of tweets on his account on Twitter.

He continued in a second tweet, “We have to raise our hat and headband to the Sanaa government, which become after an 8-year war at the forefront of the war arenas as a mighty fighting force.”

“With this statesmanship throughout the vicissitudes and conditions of war, Yemen is no longer a back garden for hiking, but rather a protected and fortress of steadfastness and lions,” al-Ajil said. “Yemen will emerge from that war in the most beautiful way.”

Al-Ajil denounced the Saudi and Emirati warplanes’ recent raids on the capital, Sanaa. He wondered if there is a building or a military base that has not been destroyed or bombed. “There are only the elderly, children, and women.”

He affirmed that the bombing of Sanaa or others is not a solution, and the Yemenis would respond, and the war would not remain this way but would develop.
