Lebanon’s resistance movement Hezbollah extended its condolences to the Yemeni people on the martyrdom of the brother of the leader of the Houthi movement Sayyed Abdul Malik Baderidddine Al-Houthi.
Yemeni sources reported that Sayyed Ibrahim al-Houthi's body, along with a number of Ansarullah commanders, had been discovered in a house following a Saudi strike in the city of Haddeh in Yemen's west-central province of Sana’a.
“We strongly condemn this criminal operation, the mass killings and massacres and the total destruction of brotherly Yemen, its institutions and facilities,” the statement read on Friday. “[We] reiterate the need to end this unjust aggression, which only benefits the Zionist enemy and its conspirators.”
The resistance movement expressed solidarity and sympathy with the martyr's family and the Yemeni leadership and people, stressing that “the bloods of the martyrs will increase the oppressed Yemeni people's insistence to continue defending themselves until victory is achieved.”
Saudi Arabia and a number of its regional allies launched a devastating campaign against Yemen in March 2015 with the goal of forcefully reinstating the resigned regime of former President Abd Rabbu Mansour Hadi to power and crushing the Ansarullah revolutionary movement.
However, resistance by Yemen’s armed forces, led by the Ansarullah, has pushed the Saudi war to a stalemate, with Yemeni forces increasingly using sophisticated weaponry in retaliatory attacks against the coalition.
