Hodeida sons rally in 235 marches in solidarity with Gaza & readiness against aggression
Hodeida province witnessed on Friday massive public marches across 235 squares in all districts, reaffirming steadfast support for the Palestinian people under the slogan: "Steadfastness with Gaza, Readiness, and Mobilization Against Aggression."
The squares, led by Hodeida City's main square, were packed with crowds who flocked from the province's rural and urban areas in a grand public display of deep allegiance to the Palestinian cause. Governor Abdullah Atifi, First Deputy Governor Ahmed Al-Bishri, and deputies Mohammed Halisi, Mohammed Al-Nahari, and Ali Al-Kabari spearheaded the marches.
Participants, including deputies for the Eastern, Northern, and Southern Districts—Amer Mathna, Ghalib Hamza, and Mutahar Al-Hadi—chanted slogans condemning the crimes of the Zionist entity and calling on the Islamic nation in all its spectrums to mobilize for jihad and support the oppressed Palestinian blood.
They emphasized Muslim unity, holding fast to God's rope, standing as one against tyranny and arrogance in defense of Gaza, Palestine, and all occupied Islamic lands. The marches renewed strong condemnation of Israel's ongoing brutal massacres, genocide, and starvation crimes against civilians in Gaza amid suspicious international silence and blatant complicity.
Participants held nations and peoples of the Islamic world—especially those near Palestine—accountable before God and history for Gaza's suffocating siege and deliberate starvation, stressing that delivering food, water, and medicine to the blockaded strip is an urgent religious and humanitarian duty.
The people of Hodeida, guardian of the Red Sea, deemed normalization with the Zionist enemy a major crime, reversible only by severing all political, economic, media, and cultural ties with the usurping entity. They called on Arab and Muslim peoples to fulfill their duties in jihad and sacrifice—with lives or wealth—to support Gaza, liberate Al-Aqsa, and confront the American-Zionist colonial project.
They expressed pride in the Yemeni Armed Forces' qualitative operations deep in enemy territory in support of Palestinian resistance, renewing their pledge to God and the Revolution Leader to continue mobilization , readiness for the promised battle of liberation and sacred jihad.
A statement issued by the mass marches denounced the criminal Zionist enemy—with full American and Western involvement—for committing the most heinous genocide against the Palestinian people in Gaza and all of Palestine for 21 months, amid global silence and in full view of hundreds of millions of Arabs, Muslims, and people worldwide.
It highlighted ongoing Zionist violations against Al-Aqsa Mosque and holy sites, arrogantly imposing total domination over the region's peoples. The statement affirmed the continuation of weekly million-man marches in response to God, steadfastly supporting the oppressed Palestinian people with full readiness against any aggression, relying on God's promise and victory.
The statement condemned the silence of most Arab and Islamic regimes toward the major massacres and genocide by the Zionist and American enemies against Gaza's people, rejecting global complicity and deceptive rhetoric lacking real action, which emboldens the enemy.
This shameful silence, it warned, threatens the nation's present and future in this life and the hereafter. It reaffirmed that the Yemeni people, under their wise leadership and Quranic project, rooted in faith, will never retreat from their unwavering stance supporting Gaza and Palestine, undeterred by Zionist and American threats, and ready for any escalation, trusting in God's victory.
Yemen's culture, the statement stressed, is built on patience, jihad, and steadfastness, with no room for retreat or concession. Readiness and response to God are its constants, with firm belief that outcomes belong to God alone.
It praised the legendary heroism of Palestinian men and women in Gaza and the West Bank, whose resilience despite immense sacrifices remains a source of pride and inspiration, proving that limited resources never justify surrender.
Despite harsh conditions, Gaza's people refused to yield, writing epic tales of steadfastness that defied the enemy's might.
The statement called on Arabs and Muslims—peoples and regimes—to boycott Israeli and American products that support the criminal Zionist entity, as boycott is an effective, accessible weapon and the least stance against Gaza's atrocities.

OCHA warns of continued Israeli attacks on displaced, starving civilians in Gaza
New York – SABA: The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) has warned of the continued Israeli attacks directly targeting tents and schools sheltering displaced persons in the Gaza Strip, as well as civilians attempting to access food aid, resulting in large numbers of casualties. In its latest report issued on Friday, OCHA stated that more than 714,000 people—about one-third of Gaza's population—have been displaced in the past three months alone, amid escalating aggression and a deepening humanitarian catastrophe. The report also warned of imminent fuel shortages, threatening to shut down life-saving services such as intensive care units and water production, with catastrophic consequences for patients and healthcare facilities. It further noted that the lack of fuel has forced child protection workers to travel on foot, causing dangerous delays in emergency responses and increasing risks for separated and unaccompanied children. In the occupied West Bank, OCHA reported that settlers carried out nearly 740 attacks targeting over 200 Palestinian communities during the first half of 2025, resulting in 340 Palestinian injuries and widespread property damage. June 2025 recorded the highest number of injuries in two decades, with 95 Palestinians injured by settlers—an average of three per day. OCHA also documented a mass demolition operation by Israeli forces in the Tel al-Khashaba pastoral community in the Jordan Valley, which led to the displacement of five Palestinian families. This marks the third mass demolition in the community since the beginning of the year. Meanwhile, the Israeli army issued demolition orders for 104 structures inside the Tulkarm refugee camp, further threatening already vulnerable populations.

Hezbollah SG: Defending homeland requires no one's permission
Beirut – SABA: The Secretary-General of Hezbollah, Sheikh Naeem Qassem, affirmed on Friday that 'defending the homeland requires no one's permission', adding that the resistance remains open to discussions when a serious and effective alternative for national defense is proposed. In remarks delivered during the ninth night of Ashura commemorations at the Sayyed al-Shuhada Complex, as reported by Al-Manar, Sheikh Qassem stated: 'We are not far from discussion and understanding with those who claim to be capable of protecting the country. But we will not accept demands to hand over our weapons without first demanding an end to aggression.' He criticized those calling for disarmament while remaining silent about the Israeli occupation, saying: 'It is illogical to criticize only those resisting occupation while ignoring the occupier itself.' Addressing those betting on foreign powers or hiding behind hostile forces, Qassem said: 'You miscalculated. The people of resistance do not fear enemies, nor will they surrender their rights. True achievement lies in liberating land and restoring sovereignty — and we are always ready for this mission.' He emphasized that Ashura commemorations are a revival of Islam's broad and timeless teachings, noting that Islam is not a set of rigid rituals, but rather a comprehensive project for humanity, built on unchanging values and flexible practices that adapt to time and experience. Sheikh Qassem added that the emergence of pioneering figures in Lebanon who adhere to Islamic principles reflects a living embodiment of the values Hezbollah believes in. He also recalled the resistance's role in recent confrontations: 'In our last two battles — 'Al-Awliyaa' al-Ba's' and 'Al-Aqsa Flood' — we fought alongside the people of Gaza and sacrificed many martyrs, including women and children, because our resistance is comprehensive and inclusive.' He concluded by stressing that true patriotism lies in attachment to the land and defending it, educating future generations to love and belong to it: 'We believe in our country. There is no contradiction between Islam and patriotism. Islam encourages love of the homeland and urges its defense.' Qassem reiterated that Hezbollah's choice of resistance stems from Islam, inspired by the paths of Imam Hussein (A.S.) and Lady Zainab (A.S.), stating: 'Our resistance is not a slogan, but a firm stance against the Israeli enemy. He must leave — and we have no option but to resist him until he does.' Whatsapp Telegram Email Print more of (International)
