Resistance's 'painful' response delayed for planning: Sayyed al-Houthi
The leader of the Yemeni Ansar Allah movement confirms ongoing support for the Gaza Strip as the Israeli war of genocide continues, vowing that the Axis' response is inevitable and will be painful.
The Israeli occupation has been carrying out the crime of the century against the people of the Gaza Strip for 321 days now, confirmed the leader of the Ansar Allah movement in Yemen, Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, stressing that this Israeli crime is being committed in partnership with the United States and with Western support.
In his speech today, Thursday, regarding the developments of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip and regional developments, Sayyed al-Houthi said that [shouldering] responsibility and [upholding the] religious and moral duty incumbent on all Muslims, in a way that lives up to the utmost injustice the Palestinian people are subjected to, coupled with failure to take action, “is a serious matter."
He stressed that religious scholars and enlightened people are the ones mostly responsible for opening the eyes of the nation and raising its awareness regarding the dangers of failing to support the Palestinian people.
Defending Gaza and the al-Aqsa Mosque is a sacred duty incumbent on all Muslims, according to Sayyed al-Houthi, who affirmed that some are slackening in this respect while others are being complicit.
Sayyed Al-Houthi further stressed that "failure to support the Palestinian people is a danger to the Arab and Islamic peoples and an opportunity for the enemies," hailing the decision of the Colombian President to ban the export of coal to the occupation entity in support of Gaza, while "we see Arab regimes pursuing exports to the enemy."
"The Colombian president has banned the export of coal to the Israeli entity in support of #Gaza, while we see Arab regimes pursuing exports to the enemy."

He added, in the context of the stances of Arab regimes from the aggression on Gaza, that some of them have gone as far as punishing with imprisonment, fines, torture, and sometimes exile whosoever sympathizes with the Palestinian people and their freedom fighters.
Sayyed al-Houthi stressed that "it is inappropriate for the Islamic and Arab arena to be devoid of popular solidarity with the Palestinian people, while interaction continues in non-Islamic countries."
Support fronts for Gaza
Regarding the developments in occupied Palestine, Sayyed Al-Houthi touched on the speech of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the US Congress last month, noting that it was not about him receiving a warm welcome and standing ovations for his crimes but rather about him returning with more military and political support to take his crimes to the next level.
The leader of the Ansar Allah movement described the martyrdom operation in Tel Aviv and reintroducing such operations as a successful step “that holds utmost importance."
On the support fronts for Gaza, Sayyed al-Houthi stressed that they are "ongoing" and "effective", especially the southern Lebanese front, where the Israelis are awaiting Hezbollah's inevitable response to the assassination of Commander Sayyed Fouad Shokor.
"The support fronts for #Gaza are ongoing and effective, especially the southern Lebanese front where Israel is awaiting #Hezbollah's inevitable response... The Axis' support fronts will definitely respond."

Expanding on the Lebanese front, the Yemeni Resistance leader called Hezbollah’s operations ongoing and “flaming”, which is evident in the great human losses and impact on the Israeli occupation.
On Iran, Sayyed al-Houthi recalled how the Israeli occupation is anticipating the Iranian response to the assassination of the great Islamic leader, the martyred Resistance fighter Ismail Haniyeh, which he said “will be painful and of huge impact," affirming that "planning for such a response is one of the reasons for the delay."
Manifest honorable Yemeni stance
The leader of the Ansar Allah movement announced that Yemen’s front in support of Gaza and its Resistance carried out several operations during the past week using 21 ballistic missiles and USVs, adding that the number of ships targeted whether for their connection to the occupation or for violating the embargo decision reached 182 since the Yemeni operations were launched.
Sayyed al-Houthi stressed that this week's operations came despite the fact that the American-British aggression launched 5 raids on the Hodeidah Governorate.
He added that the number of mobilization and training recruits exceeded 432 thousand, hoping "that there will be a higher turnout."
The number of military parades, military marches, and maneuvers amounted to 2292, the Yemeni Resistance leader highlighted.
Sayyed al-Houthi affirmed that the weekly marches and rallies held in support of Gaza will continue in the capital Sanaa, as well as in different Yemeni governorates and countrysides, regardless of the circumstances and weather conditions.
In this context, he called on the Yemeni people to hold million-man marches tomorrow, Friday, across Yemen.
Sayyed al-Houthi concluded his speech by saying, "The stance of our beloved people is one of honor and valor, and it will be remembered by the coming generations as such; never stained with the shame of failure, as is the case with many peoples and regimes."
