Yemeni Nation Steadfast in Supporting Palestinians: Houthi Leader

Local Editor

The leader of Yemen’s Houthi Ansarullah movement Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi has described the Yemeni nation’s support for Palestine and Palestinian resistance movements in the face of the Israeli regime’s aggression as "solid and unwavering."

In a televised speech Thursday on the eve of International Al-Quds Day, Houthi said that the Yemenis wholeheartedly love their Palestinian brethren and praise the courageous stands of Palestinian resistance movements.

"The Zionist regime is the common enemy of Islamic nations. It poses a pervasive threat, which we are entitled to confront," he said, adding, "Al-Aqsa Mosque is one of our sanctities and we cannot forget it," he pointed out.

He further described popular uprising as the main means to withstand the US and Western support for the Tel Aviv regime.

Houthi also pointed to the sacrifices made by the Lebanese resistance movement Hezbollah, lauding it as an honor for the Muslim ummah.

Houthi’s remarks came ahead of the International Quds Day, which is held annually on the last Friday of the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan as designated by the late founder of the Islamic Republic, Imam Khomeini.

Each year, millions of people around the world stage rallies on the day to voice their support for the Palestinian nation and repeat their call for an end to the Tel Aviv regime’s atrocities and occupation of the Palestinian territories.
