Saudi-Led Aggression in Yemen Brings Losses to Riyadh: Houthi Leader
Local Editor
The leader of Yemen’s Houthi Ansarullah movement said Saudi Arabia’s "heinous aggression" against Yemen will only bring "misery and loss" to the regime in Riyadh.
In a televised speech on Sunday, Abdul-Malik Badreddin al-Houthi said the people of Yemen would stand firm despite Riyadh’s "threats and sanctions."
Houthi made the remarks in an address to Yemenis on the occasion of the birth anniversary of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH).
He described Saudi Arabia as a "bad neighbor" to Yemen, saying that the regime in Riyadh was a "hypocritical system."
The Houthi leader also praised the Yemeni people’s solidarity and unity against the Saudi war machine, while hailing the Yemeni army and allied fighters from the Popular Committees.
"We do not kneel before the enemy. We will not surrender. Allah will be with us," he said, reminding his people of the responsibility they all have regarding their common cause.
He also noted that Yemen would fight back as long as the Saudi regime continued its aggression against the nation.
Yemen, the most impoverished Arab country, has been under relentless Saudi airstrikes since March 2015, when Saudi Arabia launched its military aggression against the neighboring country in an attempt to undermine Ansarullah and reinstate Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi.
The Saudi military aggression has left at least 11,400 civilians dead, according to the latest tally by a Yemeni monitoring group.
