The Yemeni Ministry of Interior has announced the success of a 
multi-phase security operation that led to the arrest of a spy network 
linked to a joint operations room involving the CIA, Israeli Mossad 
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/next-confrontation-with--israel--inevitable--sayyed-al-houth>, 
and Saudi intelligence, which was based on Saudi territory.

The Ministry said in its statement that the joint operations room 
coordinated sabotage 
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/ansar-allah-to-katz--we-wont-be-threatened-by-criminals> 
and espionage efforts against Yemen, operating from Saudi territory to 
establish multiple small cells that functioned independently while 
remaining connected to the central enemy operations room.

Furthermore, the joint enemy intelligence room supplied the spy cells 
with advanced surveillance devices and tools 
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/amnesty--us-strike-on-yemen-prison-may-constitute-war-crime> 
to monitor any chosen locations and transmit coordinates and 
information, and the cell members were trained on how to operate these 
devices and write reports while uploading coordinates.

It added that the operatives were also instructed in concealment and 
disguise techniques 
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/ansar-allah-detain-3-un-staff-as-spies-for--israel---us> 
to avoid detection and capture, and that all training was carried out by 
American, Israeli, and Saudi officers on Saudi territory.

The spy cells monitored Yemen’s infrastructure and sought to identify 
military and security installations, including weapons manufacturing 
facilities and launch sites for ballistic missiles and drones used by 
our valiant army against the criminal Zionist enemy, as part of their 
broader surveillance activities.

Additionally, the cells gathered intelligence and conducted 
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/ansar-allah-detain-3-un-staff-as-spies-for--israel---us> 
ongoing surveillance on civilian state leaders as well as military and 
security commanders, tracking their headquarters, movements, and 
operational activities, according to the Yemeni Ministry of Interior.


    Network assisted US, Israeli strikes on civilian areas

It further reported that the network’s cells were involved in 
contributing 
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/-israel--reports-missile-fired-from-yemen-toward-occupied-pa> 
to the killing of Yemeni civilians by assisting US and Israeli strikes 
on homes, markets, and public places, that they supplied the enemy with 
information and coordinates on certain service facilities that were 
later targeted, and that these actions aimed to damage the interests of 
the Yemeni people and to impose economic and living hardships on the 
population.

The Interior Ministry said the joint intelligence cell involving the US, 
"Israel", and Saudi Arabia had recruited spy networks to undermine 
Yemen’s military efforts and support

for Gaza, adding that it revealed the network to keep the Yemeni people 
vigilant. Furthermore, it called for vigilance against any plots by 
Yemen's enemies.


    Yemen detains UN staff spying for 'Israel' and US

A security source from Ansar Allah said that on October 26, two women 
who worked for the World Food Programme were taken from their homes in 
Sanaa, and a Yemeni man employed by WFP was arrested that same night.

The source added that security and intelligence services in Sanaa still 
maintain a list of individuals wanted for collaborating with "Israel" 
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/us-gives--israel--cover-for--genocide--in-gaza--sayyed-al-ho> 
and the United States.

Furthermore, the Yemeni source noted that these arrests are part of a 
broader wave targeting UN and NGO workers on similar charges, following 
the detention of seven local UN staffers earlier this week accused of 
collaborating with "Israel".


    Sayyed al-Houthi warns of NGOs spying for 'Israel' and US

In a speech on October 16, the leader of Ansar Allah, Sayyed Abdulmalik 
al-Houthi, revealed that several individuals affiliated with 
humanitarian organizations who were arrested were part of a criminal 
espionage apparatus. The Yemeni leader noted thatthese enemy spy cells 
targeting Yemen 
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/us---israel--employing-ngos-in-espionage-operations--sayyed>had 
undergone extensive training and were equipped with sophisticated and 
dangerous technology.

The Yemeni leader confirmed that among the most dangerous of these 
active cells were individuals affiliated with organizations operating in 
the humanitarian field, most notably the World Food Programme and UNICEF.

According to the Ansar Allah leader, these cells played afundamental 
role in the Israeli targeting 
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/-israel--kills-31-yemeni-journalists-in--deadliest--me-attac>of 
the government meeting by monitoring and reporting to the Israeli enemy 
and thus facilitating the crime.

He further indicated that a cell specifically affiliated with the World 
Food Programme, which the chief of security and safety headed for the 
program's branch in Yemen, played a role in the crime of targeting the 
government.

  Sayyed al-Houthi further asserted that "the Americans and Israelis 
have used humanitarian organizations as a cover to protect these cells 
from arrest and to facilitate their movements with the resources and 
equipment provided to them."
