Confessions made by the US-Israeli spy network revealed Washington's strategic goal of fragmenting Yemen geographically, sowing divisions, and creating instability in the country, a Yemeni source told Al Mayadeen on Saturday.

In mid-June, the Yemeni Security Forces in Sanaa uncovered a large espionage network operated by American and Israeli intelligence agencies. Officials revealed that the network had been active within various institutions in Yemen since 2015.

The source said that the confessions revealed significant infiltration into the former state leadership and parliament with an aim to influence its decisions and operations.

The confessions exposed "American conspiracies on the political level through reproducing crises and escalating them in Yemen."

US turned previous Yemeni government into "a puppet"

The spy network admitted that Washington turned the previous Yemeni government into "a puppet under its control." It also exposed the reality of the US conspiratorial role against the 2011 revolution.

According to the source, the network admitted that the aim was for the Yemeni national dialogue to be merely superficial, allowing Washington to push through its dangerous projects regarding the state structure and constitution.

If it were not for the role of the Ansar Allah movement, Yemen would be in a much worse situation today, the source stressed.

The spy network's confessions further revealed that all the wars waged on Saada and the assassinations carried out were orchestrated by the United States, with local collaborators serving merely as tools. These efforts aimed to pressure Ansar Allah into accepting regionalization and division.

Washington behind aggression on Yemen

The confessions emphasized that Washington is behind the aggression against Yemen and that all efforts it presents under the guise of political peace initiatives are nothing more than conspiracies and plots within the same context.

In the same vein, one of the network’s members revealed that the so-called "democracy sector" within the US embassy worked to control the Supreme Elections Committee to determine who governs Yemen.

The US embassy's "election program" played an intelligence role by recruiting party leaders interested in election-related matters, the spy indicated, adding that the embassy and other US intelligence agencies sought to obtain the voter registry of Yemeni citizens.

Another member of the spy network admitted that USAID projects, UN initiatives, and others presented under the guise of providing aid to Yemen, contain hidden and dangerous elements related to intelligence activities.

As part of the US-Israeli spy network's confessions, a security source told Al Mayadeen in late June that the Cultural Attaché at the US embassy in Yemen targeted all segments of Yemeni society, through which cells were lured and recruited to collect information.

The source pointed out that the spy network's confessions revealed that the US embassy was nothing more than a den of espionage and a tool for sabotage and that the Cultural Attaché at the US embassy in Yemen was linked to the US intelligence agency, the CIA.

On June 22, the Yemeni security services published extensive confessions from members of the US-Israeli espionage network, revealing that their operations were aimed at undermining Yemen's economic sector by collecting data to support US presence and advance its agendas.
