Why it matters:
Al-Houthi’s condemnation of Israel’s months-long genocide in Gaza comes as the regime has killed more than 70,000 civilians and left the besieged territory in ruins.
Despite the agreement reached recently with the aim of ending the Israeli regime’s genocide in Gaza, Tel Aviv continues its deadly violations.
Al-Houthi’s address reinforces Yemen’s alignment with the Axis of Resistance and its declared readiness to continue supporting the Palestinian cause.
The big picture:
The Ansarullah leader spoke Thursday on the latest developments in Gaza and the broader regional situation.
He praised Iran’s steadfast support for Palestine and resistance groups across the region.
Despite the advanced Western weaponry provided to Israel, Al-Houthi said, the regime has failed both militarily and politically.
What he’s saying:
On Israeli crimes:
“The Zionist enemy committed the most heinous crimes against the people of Palestine but failed to achieve its goals.”
On U.S. involvement:
“Americans are partners in every crime committed by the Zionist entity against the Palestinian nation.”
On Iran’s role:
“The Islamic Republic of Iran has played a central role in supporting the Palestinian cause and the resistance axis.”
On Yemen’s solidarity:
“The Yemeni armed forces and people have stood firmly with the oppressed Palestinians and will continue to do so.”
On Israel’s failures:
“Despite enjoying absolute U.S. support and the mobilization of global Zionism, the Israeli enemy suffered major defeats in Gaza.”
“It could not retrieve its captives except through a prisoner exchange deal, and it continues to violate agreements with Palestinian resistance.”
Go deeper:
Yemen’s Ansarullah movement has repeatedly launched drone and missile operations against Israeli-linked targets in the Red Sea in solidarity with Gaza.
