The Yemeni Ansarullah leader has praised Iran’s significant role in the Palestinian nation’s triumph over Israel after a 15-month-long campaign of genocide.
Abdul-Malik al-Houthi was giving a televised speech aired live from the Yemeni capital Sana’a on Monday evening.
“Despite all pressures, the Islamic Republic of Iran maintained its unfaltering support for Palestinians and their Resistance front. Iran carried out major and large operations, and launched Operations True Promise I and II,” targeting key Israeli military and intelligence installations with its missiles, he said.
“The support front for Gaza delivered a crushing blow to the Zionist enemy, and Iran played an important role in the achievement of such a victory.”
“This round of confrontation with the Israeli regime marks a turning point in the history of struggle against the Zionist enemy. [The Lebanese resistance movement] Hezbollah made tremendous sacrifices in an unprecedented manner alongside Palestinians.
“Hezbollah has continued to torment the Israeli enemy, and inflicted heavy losses and serious damage on it through great operations. The Iraqi support front also undertook several operations, which continued till recently, until victory was achieved,” Houthi stated.
The Ansarullah chief said Hamas, the Islamic Jihad and other Palestinian resistance factions remained steadfast until an outstanding result.
He also hailed Resistance fighters based in the occupied West Bank for the great sacrifices made and heroic operations carried out in solidarity with Gazans.
Houthi said the support front in Yemen has surprised the whole world with its substantial level of support, sustainability, and resilience.
“Yemenis supported the Palestinian cause and its resistance front due to Qura’nic teachings. The Yemeni nation wanted Ansarullah to stand side by side with Palestinians in the fight against the Israeli enemy.”
The Ansarullah leader underscored that the Israeli army crossed all redlines in the Gaza Strip with attacks on hospitals and civilian infrastructure.
Houthi said the Yemeni Armed Forces could successfully carry out operations against Israeli assets at sea, stating that the retaliatory strikes continued despite US interventions.
“The US military and the Israeli enemy failed to intercept Yemeni missiles and drones. Yemeni Armed Forces managed to stop Israeli-linked vessels sailing through the Red Sea.
“The US military and the Israeli enemy also could not locate Yemeni military installations and missile launch sites. Yemeni forces could cause serious economic losses on the Israeli enemy by targeting the Port of Eilat,” Houthi said.
The Ansarullah chief also said Yemeni forces managed to target US aircraft carriers in the Red Sea, stating that Washington launched a propaganda campaign against Yemen’s popular support for Palestinians in Gaza but to no avail.
Houthi warned the regime against the resumption of atrocities in Gaza, emphasizing that Yemeni forces are ready to escalate their strikes in case the Tel Aviv regime ups the ante in Gaza.
