Agreement to Strengthen Yemen\u2019s Coastguard<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Saudi Arabia and the United Kingdom have announced a new maritime security plan aimed at strengthening the Yemeni coastguard under the country\u2019s internationally recognized government. The initiative will train and equip Yemeni forces to counter piracy, human trafficking, and smuggling operations in regional waters.<\/p>\n

Backing from Global Partners<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The agreement, revealed at a press conference in Riyadh, has received financial support worth several million dollars from over 35 nations. Key contributors include Australia, Canada, Japan, the United States, Gulf countries, and the European Union, according to the British embassy.<\/p>\n

Saudi Arabia Pledges $4 Million<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Saudi Arabia confirmed a $4 million contribution to the initiative. \u201cThis support is essential for ensuring regional stability and safe navigation,\u201d said Saudi Ambassador to Yemen, Mohammed Al Jaber, highlighting the kingdom\u2019s commitment to maritime security.<\/p>\n

Rising Threats in Red Sea Waters<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The plan comes amid escalating threats in the Red Sea, where Iran-backed Houthi forces have targeted Israel and international shipping with missiles and drones during the ongoing Gaza war. The group claims its actions are in solidarity with Palestinians.<\/p>\n

Japan Calls It a First Step<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Japan\u2019s ambassador to Yemen, Yoichi Nakashima, welcomed the plan, stressing the importance of the Yemeni government\u2019s control over its coastline. However, he cautioned that the move alone may not immediately stop Houthi attacks. \u201cWe can see this as a first step, to be followed by others,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
