Leader of the Revolution: The Supportive and Popular Position Strengthens with Continued Operations and Massive Mobilization in Support of the Palestinian People

In the context of the ongoing military operations of the Yemeni Armed Forces, the Leader of the Revolution, Mr. Abdulmalik Badr al-Din al-Houthi, confirmed that the support operations are being escalated more forcefully. He stated:
“We carried out this week operations involving 10 rockets and unmanned aerial vehicles, including a strike on Lod Airport, as an additional step to increase pressure on the Israeli enemy and intensify the confrontation.”

Mr. al-Houthi also referred to the announcement of the fourth phase of operations, which targets vessels belonging to companies dealing with the Israeli enemy and transporting goods to it, affirming that the Yemeni Armed Forces will continue to strike any reachable target.

He explained that the fourth phase is a response to the situation reached in the Gaza Strip, noting that the Israeli enemy acknowledged its defeat after being compelled to close the port of Umm al-Rashrash—an indication of the retreat and weakness afflicting the occupation.

He further emphasized the significant role played by Sana’a University in championing the Palestinian people, calling on it to serve as a model for universities across Arab and Islamic capitals. He stressed that the Palestinian cause should be integrated into educational and awareness activities in all Arab countries.

Unprecedented Popular Outpouring in Yemen
The Leader also addressed the massive public turnout last Friday in Al-Sabeen Square in Sana’a, which he described as “a turbulent sea of human waves,” accompanied by chants in support of the Palestinian people. He added that this large mobilization was a great drawing near to God, noting that the popular momentum in Al-Sabeen Square and in more than 1,333 squares across the governorates constitutes a critical step in fortifying the national stance against external pressures.

He praised the broad participation of the Yemeni people, considering their continued presence in the squares “more demoralizing to the enemies than anything else,” portraying it as a core element of popular jihad and a manifestation of the high faith-based values possessed by the Yemeni populace.

Training and Mobilization Outcomes
On the military readiness front, the Leader announced training outcomes totaling 1,017,977 trainees—a figure that reflects the high military preparedness of the Yemeni people, complementing the extensively trained regular forces.

Warnings to Treacherous Instruments
In his warning message, the Leader stressed that anyone among the tools of betrayal and treachery attempting to collaborate with the Israeli enemy will face a firm response from the Yemeni people. He urged everyone to recognize that the country enjoys greatness, cohesion, and widespread popular awareness, and that it will not tolerate any infringement on its national stance.

He added: “The great preparedness and wide popular engagement is the fundamental guarantee to confront all conspiracies and threats facing the nation.”
