Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi reaffirms Yemen's unwavering support for Gaza
In a speech on Sunday, marking the anniversary of the martyrdom of Imam Zayd ibn Ali (peace be upon them), Sayyed Abdul-Malik said that 'the Yemeni people, in their comprehensive and ongoing movement since the beginning of the aggression on Gaza, remain firm in their stance despite two successive rounds of military aggression —an American, British, and Israeli aggression, in which they launched thousands of airstrikes on the country.'
He added, 'Our position is steadfast in supporting the Palestinian people and confronting American-Israeli tyranny, and we are confident in Allah's true promise of victory.'
Sayyed Abdul-malik stated that ' Yemen, in its stance with Gaza, is facing a massive propaganda war aimed at dismantling the people's direction and diverting them from their major causes. At the forefront is the Palestinian cause.'
'The insight of our people and their Qur'anic awareness are the foundation of their great steadfastness and unwavering faith,' he said.
Sayyed Abdul-Malik confirmed: ' Our people will continue their active and serious movement in all fields—military operations, popular activities, and mobilization efforts. Our path in confronting American and Israeli tyranny and its extensions in the Ummah is one guided by the insight of the Holy Qur'an.
'Our movement against American and Israeli tyranny is rooted in faith and is a genuine path that spans generations in this Ummah,' Sayyed Abdul-malik stressed.
In his speech, Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, condemned the inaction of the Arab and Islamic nations amid the humanitarian catastrophe unfolding in Gaza.
He further stressed that the collective failure to support Palestinians in the besieged enclave carries dire consequences both in this world and the hereafter.
'The nation is witnessing the scale of the tragedy and injustice in Gaza,' he said. 'To watch and abandon responsibility is a grave danger to the Ummah.'
Sayyed al-Houthi underscored the immense suffering in Gaza, where hundreds of thousands are enduring severe hunger and brutal siege conditions.
He noted that 'the people of Gaza are starving, surrounded by hundreds of millions of Arabs and over two billion Muslims who merely watch and stand idle.'
Earlier in the day, Yemenis took to the Al-Matar Street in the capital, Sana'a with mass rally marking the anniversary of the martyrdom of Imam Zayd ibn Ali (peace be upon them).

UAE launches water pipeline project to supply Gaza
The United Arab Emirates has initiated the construction of a critical water pipeline linking an Egyptian desalination plant to the coastal area of Al-Mawasi in southern Gaza. The project, approved by Israel's defense establishment and carried out with logistical coordination across borders, marks a significant humanitarian effort to alleviate the water crisis affecting nearly 600,000 Palestinians in the war-torn enclave. The pipeline, which will operate independently of existing Israeli water infrastructure, is designed to deliver potable water directly from Egypt into Gaza. It is being developed under the supervision of the Israeli military's Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) and was greenlit by the Israeli political echelon as a non-political, humanitarian measure. On Sunday, the first batch of construction materials, delivered by Emirati representatives, crossed the Kerem Shalom border crossing following stringent security inspections by Israel's Border Authority and Ministry of Defense. Construction is expected to begin in the coming days and will span several weeks. "This is a purely humanitarian measure, taken within the framework of cabinet decisions," said Israeli officials, emphasizing that the project does not signal a move toward rebuilding Gaza or any shift in political posture. "The connection of the pipeline does not constitute a step towards the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip," they added, aiming to quash speculation of normalization or broader reconciliation. The move comes amid a temporary humanitarian truce announced by Israel over the weekend. In parallel, Israeli authorities authorized workers from the Israel Electric Corporation to reconnect a key power line from the Ashkelon power station to Deir al-Balah. This line supports the Egyptian desalination plant already contributing to Gaza's water supply.

National Interest : Houthi Threat to Red Sea Will Persist Without Consequences
Aden — In a sharply worded analysis, The National Interest magazine cautioned that Yemen's Houthi militia will continue to endanger international shipping in the Red Sea unless it faces tangible repercussions for its escalating attacks. The article, co-authored by researchers Mark Dubowitz and Kobi Gottlieb, argues that diplomatic efforts led by the United States and Saudi Arabia have failed to deter the Iran-backed group. Instead, the Houthis have exploited ceasefires to rearm and intensify their operations, including ballistic missile launches on Israeli targets and dozens of assaults on commercial vessels since October 2023. Global Maritime Security at Risk - Houthis' actions have disrupted global supply chains, threatening one of the world's most vital maritime corridors. - The threat, the authors stress, extends beyond Israel and now jeopardizes international trade and civilian safety across the region. Call for a Harder Line The report urges the U.S. administration to abandon its 'de-escalation at any cost' approach and instead adopt: - Stricter sanctions - Heightened diplomatic pressure - Potential military intervention, if necessary The authors emphasize that 'ceasefires must be earned, not given', warning that agreements with terrorist-designated groups are unreliable without credible deterrence mechanisms. As tensions mount in the Red Sea, the article reflects growing international concern over the Houthis' role as a strategic proxy for Iran, and the urgent need for a decisive response to safeguard maritime stability.
