马因·阿卜杜勒马利克·赛义德表示,伊朗支持的民兵使用无人机代表着“激进恐怖主义的新纪元”。被围困的也门城市粮食和燃料供应紧张,城市正为胡塞武装的突破做准备。也门西南部城市塔伊兹周围的山丘和山脉正成为西方安全未来的争夺战场,该国前总理如是说道。

Maeen Abdulmalik Saeed says Iran-backed militia’s use of drones represents ‘new era of radical terrorism’ Food and fuel run low as besieged Yemeni city braces for Houthi breakthrough The future of western security is being fought out in the mountains and hills surrounding the south-western Yemeni city of Taiz, the country’s former prime minster has said.

马因·阿卜杜勒马利克·赛义德目前是也门总统的顾问,他表示,如果该城市落入伊朗支持的胡塞武装之手,将是灾难性的,因为这将导致失去对红海战略要地巴布·曼德布海峡以及通往亚丁的道路的控制——亚丁是联合国承认的政府所在地。

Maeen Abdulmalik Saeed, now an adviser to Yemen’s president, said it would be catastrophic if the city fell to the Iran-backed Houthi rebels, since control of the strategic Bab al-Mandab strait in the Red Sea and the road to Aden – the site of the UN-recognised government – would be lost.
