Ansar Allah leader Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi called on supporters to ready themselves for the next confrontation with "Israel" and its collaborators, asserting that Yemen emerged from this latest round more powerful than it was previously at all levels.
In a speech on Tuesday marking the annual “Martyrs’ Day", Sayyed al-Houthi stressed that a comprehensive confrontation with the enemy remains inevitable as long as the occupation of Palestine persists, noting that regional stability will remain elusive so long as this occupation endures.
He explained that Palestine is not the enemys' only target, noting that Lebanon, Syria, and other nations are also in their sights, stating, “The entire Ummah is under attack, whether we acknowledge it or not."
“What protects us is jihad, not submission or surrender," the Yemeni Resistance leader emphasized.
'Israel' acts with impunity
Furthermore, the leader of Ansar Allah warned of the grave danger posed by the enemy and its deeply rooted ideological background, which he described as extremely perilous, explaining that the issue is not about provoking this enemy, as it acts without any need for justification, driven instead by an ideology inherently hostile to the entire Ummah.
Sayyed al-Houthi affirmed that the enemy seeks to link everything unfolding in the region to oil, gas, natural resources, and even access to water, urging the Ummah to recognize the extent of its brutality as it strives to impose its way of life as a daily reality marked by “humiliation and disgrace.”
On Gaza, Lebanon, and Sudan
The Yemeni leader reminded that the United States is complicit in the Israeli crimes in Gaza, denouncing what he described as the Ummah’s state of helplessness, adding that those who stood in solidarity with Palestine have faced smear campaigns and propaganda attacks following the announcement of the ceasefire in Gaza.
He noted that the occupation continues its abuses against Palestinian detainees, pointing out that the bodies of those killed reveal the extent of the torture they endured, with evidence suggesting their organs were harvested after death.
On Lebanon, Sayyed al-Houthi stated that the enemy's objective also includes disarming the Resistance, which he said remains the country’s main shield against ongoing acts of aggression.
The Yemeni leader also touched on the global movement in solidarity with Palestine, noting that while demonstrations have spread across the world, the Arab response has been timid, adding that “some regimes went as far as to ban protests altogether.”
Regarding Sudan, Sayyed al-Houthi said that the ongoing events there are backed by those who have aligned themselves with the Israeli enemy, describing what is happening as among the most heinous of crimes.
