Iran’s Quds Force Chief Praises Yemen’s Actions, Criticizes US and Israel
Brigadier General Esmail Qa’ani hails Yemen’s role in regional resistance, calling it a strong stand in support of Gaza and the wider Muslim world.
Brigadier General Esmail Qa’ani, commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Quds Force, has praised Yemen’s recent actions, describing them as a decisive step in what he called the ongoing resistance against the United States and Israel.
In a strong statement, Qa’ani commended Yemen’s leadership, fighters, and people for their “timely and strategic” role in regional developments. He framed their actions as a defense of Islamic values and an expression of solidarity with the broader Muslim community, particularly with Palestinians in Gaza.
The Iranian commander also made reference to the reported movement of the US aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford, claiming it was forced into a defensive position before retreating. His remarks reflect Iran’s continued criticism of US military presence in the region and its opposition to Israel’s actions.
Qa’ani further stated that Yemen’s efforts demonstrate a deep understanding of regional dynamics and could contribute to ending what he described as an unjust siege on the country.
The statement comes amid heightened tensions in the Middle East, where regional alliances, military activity, and ongoing conflicts continue to shape geopolitical narratives. Iran has consistently positioned itself as a supporter of groups and movements opposing US and Israeli influence in the region.
Observers note that such statements are part of a broader messaging strategy, highlighting solidarity among allied forces while reinforcing Iran’s stance on key regional issues, including the conflict in Gaza.
