Yemen warns foreign investors in Israel to withdraw amid rising risks

Mahdi al-Mashat, president of the Supreme Political Council, called on companies investing in Israel to withdraw immediately due to security concerns. He warned that continued presence could lead to severe consequences as Yemeni armed forces consider further escalation.

AhlulBayt News Agency: President of the Supreme Political Council, Mahdi al-Mashat, called on all companies investing in Israel to heed Yemen’s warning and withdraw immediately, citing unsafe conditions.

In a statement on Sunday, al-Mashat warned that companies choosing to remain in Israel despite Yemeni warnings would bear responsibility for any resulting losses. He stressed that further measures might be taken in the coming days, exposing businesses operating within the Israeli economy to significant risks.

Al-Mashat emphasized that the continued disregard for Yemeni warnings makes investment in Israel a dangerous venture, potentially leading to heavy financial consequences. He criticized the Israeli government, stating that Prime Minister Netanyahu prioritizes political interests over the safety of investment firms and does not care about foreign investors’ security.

The Yemeni official affirmed his plan to instruct relevant authorities to establish a timeframe for companies to exit, aiming to mitigate damage and prevent broader repercussions. He warned that further escalation by Yemeni armed forces could extend risks to investment activities both inside and outside Israel.

Al-Mashat concluded by revealing that some companies had already expressed willingness to relocate their investments in response to earlier warnings and advised others to follow suit.
