The leader of the Ansar Allah movement, Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, said, "The stage we are in, in Yemen, is a stage of war, and what has calmed down is none but military escalation," pointing out that "we are today in the position of confronting targeting and threats, as the stage of just following up on the news of the attacks on our nation [without acting] has come to an end."

Al-Houthi warned and advised the coalition of aggression that patience will run out, "as we cannot accept depriving our people of their national wealth."

He added, on the occasion of the martyrdom anniversary of Hussein Badr Al-Din al-Houthi, today, Friday, "We are currently going through a de-escalation phase under Omani mediation and intensive efforts to stop the aggression on Yemen." He also thanked the Omanis for their efforts and stressed the necessity of addressing the humanitarian and livelihood file, which "we cannot barter or remain silent about."

The Yemeni leader affirmed that "we will not squander the achievements of our people in terms of freedom, independence, and maintaining dignity," stressing that in any dialogue to be held, "the [main point should be that] enemies must end their aggression against our country." He warned that "time may run out and we may return to pressure options to obtain our people's right to their wealth."

"If peace is what they want, its path is clear; its key is [solving] the humanitarian file and its ultimate goal is to end the aggression, siege, and occupation."

Enemies provide all kinds of weapons, including nuclear weapons

The leader of the Ansar Allah movement said the Americans and Western countries occupy countries and appoint puppet governments therein to suppress anyone who opposes their hegemony.

Al-Houthi added that the Americans and their affiliates violate the sovereignty of states and their ambassadors meddle in everything, both issuing directives as if they are the rulers of the countries in question.

"The Americans are the ones that launch military attacks and aggressions, such as their invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan, their aggression against Yemen, and their occupation of Palestine," the Yemeni leader said, adding that they "do their best to destabilize the security of our nation, through the founding of Takfiri groups and exerting pressure on the [countries’] regimes to facilitate their operations."

In this context, he reaffirmed that "the Takfiri groups are made by the West and America with the aim of distorting the image of Islam."

The Yemeni leader indicated that "the enemies provide all kinds of weapons, including nuclear weapons, to hostile countries, whereas the countries that come under attack are denied any such weapons."

Al-Houthi affirmed, "They want us to be a nation deprived of any ability to defend itself, and that is why they are working to ban the supply of weapons to any country they want to target."

He further added that "the enemies impose agents and ignorant individuals on peoples and in important positions in state institutions with the aim of inflicting as much damage on them as possible and controlling them, thus forcing peoples to yield."

Absenting the Palestinian cause to wipe out the people’s memory

The Ansar Allah leader pointed out that "the enemies exerted strained efforts to keep the Palestinian cause out of the school curricula and were keen to exclude anything that could advance the nation's level of awareness."

He considered that "all forms of injustice and criminal activities are imposed on the Palestinian people on a daily basis."

عملوا على تغييب #القضية_الفلسطينية من المناهج الدراسية وحرصوا على تغييب كل ما يمكن أن ينهض بمستوى وعي الأمة.

"The Americans are the main killers of women, and they have killed millions of them, simultaneously as the crimes of killing women continue in Palestine at the hands of the Israelis," Sayyed al-Houthi stressed.

He confirmed that "we are ready to intervene on the side of our Palestinian people and ready for all possibilities," stressing that "anyone who cooperates and normalizes relations with the Israeli enemy will face serious consequences."

Targeting culture and intellect

Al-Houthi also said, "The enemies are committed to assassinating leaders in Yemen, Lebanon, Syria, and Iraq and supporting dictatorial and repressive regimes to ensure their subordination."

The Yemeni leader stressed that the enemies target the nation in the most dangerous forms, as they carry out attacks on the cultural and intellectual levels, noting that "under the title of freedom of expression, they apply systematic plans and mechanisms to take a hit at all Islamic sanctities, foremost of which is undermining the sanctity of the Quran among Muslims."

Sayyed al-Houthi pointed out that "the Americans and the West are pressuring the Arab and Islamic regimes to change the laws derived from Islamic law in order to create an open environment for unhindered crimes."

"The move of the martyred leader (Hussein Badr Al-Din al-Houthi) came at a time when American-Israeli hegemony entered a new phase under trumped-up titles," he further stressed.

"The enemies worked on cultural invasion, or spreading the so-called American liberalism, in a way that contradicts Islamic values," the Ansar Allah leader said, adding that the enemies used newspapers and websites to this end.

US punishes people through blockades and sanctions

Al-Houthi touched on the US military bases in the region, saying that "the Americans are imposing military bases to extend control over our countries," while "the United Nations and the Security Council are biased against the peoples of our nation, and all their positions are in favor of the enemies."

He called the blockade one of the biggest crimes, indicating that it amounts to a "collective punishment of peoples and starvation of societies."

Regarding the economic inflation witnessed in some countries, the Yemeni leader explained that "the enemies impose economic pressures and deprive the people of their national wealth," explaining that "they were keen, through the dollar, to control the wealth of the people and steal their goods."

"They practice the economic blockade to punish any country that rejects from their subordination," he said.

Sayyed al-Houthi pointed out that "the Americans seize countries' funds by freezing their assets through their sanctions," noting that this happened with many countries, including Yemen.

He continued, "The enemies of the nation aim to strike domestic and agricultural production and to prevent achieving self-sufficiency, with the aim of keeping us living on imports."

Elsewhere in his remarks, Sayyed al-Houthi offered his condolences to the Syrian and Turkish peoples for the earthquake victims, condemning the US blockade on Syria and the fragility of Arab humanitarian cooperation.
