Why it matters:
Al-Houthi's remarks reflect growing anger across the region at the prolonged Israeli assault on Gaza, now being described by various leaders and observers as a systematic campaign of genocide.
His words also highlight Yemen’s alignment with the Palestinian resistance and its broader confrontation with U.S. and Israeli terror acts in the region.
What he's saying:
In a TV address on the latest developments in Palestine and the region, Sayyed Abdul-Malik stated: “For 21 months, the criminal Zionist enemy has continued its genocide against the Palestinian people in Gaza before the eyes of the Muslim world.”
He said the occupation forces have repeatedly targeted refugee camps, schools, and any place where displaced civilians seek shelter, committing acts of mass murder with full visibility.
Al-Houthi added: “The Zionist enemy continues its savagery and cruelty in a way that reveals its deeply criminal nature. If the bloodthirsty Zionists and their murderous American partners were even wild animals or rabid dogs, they would have tired of chewing the flesh of the people of Gaza by now.”
Go deeper:
Sayyed al-Houthi’s speech is part of a wider global narrative against the Israeli Regime that views the Gaza war not as an isolated conflict, but as a reflection of a deeper Zionist-American strategy in the region.
It also signals a likely continuation of Yemen's operational support for the Palestinian resistance.
