We affirm that our authentic Yemeni Arab tribes are the primary force behind the project to restore the state, and we can never, under any circumstances, be against them. The Houthis' attempt to exploit a misguided procedure confirms their detachment from reality and their efforts to sow discord among the heroic tribes of Yemen and its armed forces.
We also affirm that the armed forces will not target any gathering whatsoever, whether a tribal gathering or any other civilian assembly. We reiterate our commitment to international humanitarian law and its customary rules in all our military operations.
The Yemeni tribes will remain a fundamental pillar in our national struggle to restore the state, and they have always been at the forefront, offering their finest sons in the fight against the Houthi terrorist militia.
