President Mahdi al-Mashat congratulated the Leader of the Revolution, Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, and the Yemeni people, both in the country and abroad, on the occasion of the blessed Eid al-Fitr.
In a speech marking Eid al-Fitr, al-Mashat expressed sorrow that Yemenis were celebrating the holiday while their brothers in Gaza were being massacred. However, he took solace in the fact that the Yemeni people had not abandoned Gaza.
He praised Yemen’s stance, highlighting military operations and the blockade of Israeli-linked shipping in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden.
He also pointed to the massive demonstrations on International al-Quds Day as proof of Yemen’s unwavering support for Palestinians in Gaza, the West Bank, and occupied al-Quds.
Al-Mashat stated that the Yemeni Armed Forces remain actively engaged in strategic confrontations against aggressors, including aircraft carriers and warships. He noted that they had successfully thwarted several enemy attacks and would continue to resist until victory was achieved.
He emphasized that US aggression would not deter Yemen from fulfilling its duty toward Palestine and its own people. Instead, he asserted that it would only strengthen Yemen’s military capabilities and challenge American dominance.
Concluding his address, al-Mashat affirmed Yemen’s resilience, stating that the country possesses both the experience and determination to teach its enemies a lesson they have failed to learn from past and ongoing wars against Yemen.
