News - Middle East  The head of the Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas in the Gaza Strip, Khalil Al-Hayya, praised Yemen's steadfast support for Gaza and its resistance.

In a televised speech, Al-Hayya stated: “We proudly salute the military and popular support from our brothers in Yemen,” affirming that fighters from the Al-Qassam Brigades, Al-Quds Brigades, and other resistance factions succeeded in thwarting the enemy’s “Gideon’s Chariots” operation.

He emphasized that “there is no point in continuing negotiations amid genocide, starvation, and the siege imposed on our children, women, and people in the Gaza Strip.”

As the war on Gaza escalates and the humanitarian crisis deepens, Yemen’s ongoing military and moral support for the Palestinian people has emerged as a powerful symbol of resistance throughout the Arab world.

Yemen's support underscores its transformation from a war-torn nation into a regional actor shaping the dynamics of resistance. It also signals rising admiration among Arab intellectuals and leaders for Yemen’s ability to make sovereign decisions and act on its principles, especially in confronting shared adversaries.
