News - Yemen: The Leader of the Revolution confirmed that the ban on the navigation of the Israeli enemy is firmly enforced via the Red Sea route to the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, the Gulf of Aden, and the Arabian Sea, while continuing to disrupt the port of Umm al-Rashrash (Eilat).

In a speech regarding the latest developments, Sayyed Abdulmalik al-Houthi revealed details of the Yemeni operations in support of Gaza during this week, indicating that two operations were carried out targeting two vessels that violated the ban decision in the far north of the Red Sea. He clarified that the total number of operations in support of Gaza during the month of Safar so far has reached 42, involving hypersonic missiles, drones, and other means.

He addressed the popular activities in Yemen in support of Gaza, confirming that they are very intensive and significant, highlighted this week by the large annual conference of Yemeni scholars organized by the Yemeni Scholars Association. He described it as a "mass gathering that produced an important statement, and it is fitting for religious scholars in other Islamic countries to act at this same level."

The Leader stated, "The scholars of the Ummah bear a great responsibility before Allah, the Almighty, to remind the Ummah of its duties and to awaken the peoples, otherwise the burden [of inaction] is great."

Sayyed Abdulmalik also touched upon university activities, considering them massive, as seen in the Wednesday marches in several universities in Sana'a, Hodeidah, Dhamar, Al-Bayda, Al-Jawf, Al-Mahwit, Amran, and Saadah. He noted that "the academic and university voice in Yemen is the only one of its kind in the Islamic world."

Regarding the vigils, military exercises, marches, and diverse activities, the Leader said they are all bustling and intensive, mentioning that the Friday marches last week reached 1,375 processions and vigils. He affirmed that movement in the path of Allah is part of this great test and is a very important matter in response to the crime of the century.

The Leader called on the Yemeni people to participate in the vast, great, and honorable million-man march tomorrow, Friday, in the capital, Sana'a, and other provinces in support of Gaza.

Sayyed Abdulmalik clarified that whoever submits to the Israeli enemy, and whoever accepts Zionist enslavement, has no faith, no wisdom, no honor, no humanity, and no dignity. He affirmed that "part of faith is to move against the vile, base, criminal, savage enemy with its aggressive, corrupt, criminal, brutal Zionist scheme."

The Leader touched upon the effectiveness of the Mujahideen in the Gaza Strip despite their limited capabilities compared to what the Israeli enemy possesses and the American and Western support and partnership it enjoys. He affirmed that "the operations of the Al-Qassam Brigades have battered the Israeli enemy, which was surprised to see such a level of effective performance after all this long period."

He pointed out that the Israeli enemy faces a real problem with human resources to the extent of considering bringing fighters from Jewish communities and mercenaries from other countries, and that it faces a real crisis and an internal problem regarding the conscription of the Haredim. He explained that there have been effective operations this week by the Al-Qassam Brigades, the Al-Quds Brigades, and the rest of the Mujahideen factions in the Gaza Strip.
