Faraan: In a speech via video conference on the occasion of the birth anniversary of Islam’s Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) on Monday, Houthi said the Yemeni people are inspired by the life and biography of the prophet (PBUH) and enlightened by his guidance in the pursuit of putting an end to the hegemony of arrogance.
He praised the crowds of people who took to the streets of Sana’a and other Yemeni provinces to mark the auspicious occasion.
Houthi called on the Yemeni people to “continue their efforts to confront the brutal US-Saudi aggression,” stressing, “We are religiously obliged to confront the aggression with firmness until the siege is lifted and the aggression and occupation end.”
He stressed that the Yemenis’ efforts to achieve freedom and independence is “a holy jihad (fight) for the sake of God that will never be compromised.”
Elsewhere in his remarks, Houthi stressed the Yemeni people’s support for the Palestinians.
He reiterated that Yemen is part of the equation of deterrence set out by Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Lebanon’s Hezbollah resistance movement in May. Back then, Nasrallah said any aggression against al-Quds or its holy sites would mean a regional war.
Houthi also condemned the recent normalization of relations between Israel and some Arab regimes as “demonic alliances.”
The so-called Abraham Accords saw the United States facilitating normalization agreements between the occupying regime and a raft of regional countries, including the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
The agreements sparked anger in the West Asia region and elsewhere. Opponents have called them a “stab in the back” of Palestine and its cause of liberation from Israeli occupation and aggression.
