Member of the Supreme Political Council, Mohammed Ali Al-Houthi, reaffirmed Yemen’s strong support for the Palestinian and Lebanese peoples on Friday, while warning the US and its president against escalating actions against Yemen.
This came during his speech at a million-man march held in Saada province in solidarity with Palestine and Lebanon.
Addressing US President Donald Trump, Al-Houthi said, “You know the Yemeni people, and you will know them even more today. The missiles launched during your time in office remain in our hands, and American interests in the region are within reach of our missiles and aircraft.”
“Any move against the Yemeni people only strengthens them; with every aggression, they grow more powerful, intensifying their operations and striving further in the path of Allah,” he added.
He continued, “Our stand with Gaza is a stance against American, British, and European-backed aggression, which seeks to isolate and besiege the people of Gaza.”
Al-Houthi emphasized that neither Trump nor anyone else intimidates Yemen, stating, “Before Trump’s tenure, he had an American aircraft carrier; now, that carrier has become a mere symbol for the world’s armies.”
He added that American naval forces were defeated, a fact announced by American generals, in the face of Yemeni resilience, warning that any renewed aggression would face even greater resistance.
Al-Houthi also called for a media campaign to label the Israeli entity as temporary and to press Arab regimes to declare it as a terrorist entity, calling on journalists in Yemen and throughout Arab nations to encourage such classification.
He addressed Arab leaders, saying, “After the massacres in Gaza, Lebanon, and the siege on Gaza, you still cannot classify [Israel] as terrorist?”
