The naval force of the security belt forces in Sabiha launched a security operation today, Wednesday, 30 naval miles from the southern coasts, seized during a smuggling boat (Sennuq) to transport African immigrants in illegal ways, to the areas of the Houthi terrorist militia supported by Iran.

The operation resulted in the seizure of 119 African immigrants, along with 4 smugglers from Yemeni provinces, with a qualitative shift in the nature of security tasks from land to the sea, in the framework of efforts to develop operational capabilities and expand the scope of work to secure the southern coastal strip from illegal smuggling and immigration activities.

The security belt forces continue efforts to combat human smuggling, and to address trafficking networks that exploit migrants to serve agendas that threaten security and stability in the Sabiha districts, Lahj Governorate and the south in general.

According to the Al -Sabiha belt operations, the Iranian -backed Houthi militia is taking advantage of African immigrants after smuggling them, to use them as human shields on the fronts, or to photograph them inside their camps with the aim of obtaining support from some international organizations.
