The spokesperson for the Ansar Allah movement, Mohammad Abdel Salam, confirmed that the Arabs are required, today, more than ever to bear the responsibility towards the people of Gaza and support the Palestinian people in every way until they achieve their legitimate rights.

Abdel Salam said in his post, on platform X, that in the Amman meeting, the arab officials were supposed to make firm statements confirming clear positions, even threaten to use force, even if minimally.

The US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken was supposed to hear such firm positions and threats, rather than hear statements begging the Americans to "kindly protect the children of Gaza," which will, "unfortunately," only lead to "more Israeli massacres against civilians."

Furthermore, Abdel Salam stressed the need for Blinken to realize that the conflict will expand as long as the US continues to give “Israel” as much time as it wants to continue its genocidal crimes in Gaza.

Yemen will always stand by the Palestinian people

Member of Yemen's Supreme Political Council, Mohammed Ali al-Houthi, confirmed on Friday that Yemen will always stand by the Palestinian people as repeatedly declared by Ansar Allah leader Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi.

Al-Houthi stressed that Yemen's stances and actions are driven by faith, Arab values, and the humanitarian principles embedded within the Quranic culture and values. These principles compel Yemen to take responsibility and act seriously in support of Muslims in Gaza and anywhere else they face injustice, he added.

The senior Yemeni official expressed gratitude to the free people of the Arab and Islamic nations and to the supporters of freedom around the world for their sentiments of appreciation of the Yemeni people over their supportive positions in favor of the oppressed Palestinian people in Gaza, manifested by military operations against the Israeli occupation.

Al-Houthi reiterated his gratitude for "the sincere emotions that have filled social media platforms, concerning Yemen's position on the Palestinian cause."

Yemen's capital Sanaa witnessed on Friday massive solidarity marches across 10 different regions in support and endorsement of the operations of the Yemeni Armed Forces against the Israeli occupation entity and of the Palestinian people and their Resistance.
