Hebrew Channel 14 revealed the persistence of concern within the Israeli occupation entity over the rising threat posed by Ansar Allah, confirming that this file remains strongly present in “Israel’s” security calculations and under close monitoring by regional and international actors.
Normalization with Somaliland Raises Concerns
The channel noted that any step toward normalizing relations between “Israel” and the Somaliland region could lead to the revival of Israeli fears about the return of the Yemeni threat, especially in light of what it described as Ansar Allah’s ability to exert influence beyond Yemen’s borders.
Growing Influence in the Red Sea and the African Coast
The report pointed out that Ansar Allah’s influence remains strong in the Red Sea and along the African coastline opposite Yemen, affirming that their military capabilities have not declined but are instead undergoing continuous development—heightening anxiety within Israeli security circles.
Israeli Caution and Fear of Escalation
The channel explained that “Israel” is deliberately pursuing a policy of de-escalation and avoiding any direct confrontation with Ansar Allah, out of fear that they could once again become engaged in an open conflict—a path that was temporarily halted following the announcement of a fragile ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.
The channel concluded its report by emphasizing that this Israeli caution reflects a growing awareness of the sensitivity of the Yemeni front and the real threat it could pose in any future confrontation.
