Yemen Plans to Use Seized U.S.-Made Weapons to Develop Military Power

SANAA (Kayhan Intl.) – The Yemeni army plans to use the U.S.-made weapons taken from the Saudi-led coalition troops for military research and production of high-quality arms, a source says.
The Arabic-language al-Khabar al-Yamani news website quoted an informed military source in Yemen’s army as saying on Saturday that the army will use these weapons in the technological field to develop its military power.
"The weapons might be sent to the technological department of the defense industry,” he added.
Yemen’s armed forces spokesman Brigadier General Yahya Saree revealed on Tuesday a large quantity of U.S. weapons seized during the recent campaign against the Saudi-mercenaries in Al-Baidha governorate.
"Over the past few days, Yemeni Armed Forces have discovered large quantities of U.S.-built munitions at the positions of Saudi mercenaries while conducting clean-up operations in Al-Baidha and other fronts,” Brigadier General Yahya Sare’e said at a press conference broadcast live from the capital Sana’a on Tuesday afternoon, Al-Masirah reported.
"The weapons had the logo of the so-called United States Agency for International Development (USAID) on them,” Saree said, adding that USAID supports and funds organizations in Yemen to collect classified information under the guise of humanitarian activities.
"This is the U.S. assistance to the Yemeni people, and this is the reality of this organization that is trying to impose its decision on the Yemenis and is playing suspicious roles.”
The spokesman displayed pictures that showed the 105-caliber Hauser and 75-caliber artillery shells with the USAID logo, pointing out that these scenes are not only for the Yemenis but for all the free people in this world to know the truth of the American role.
Saudi Arabia and a number of its regional allies launched a devastating war on Yemen in March 2015 in order to bring Saudi-backed former president Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi back to power and crush Ansarullah movement.
