Dr. Bin Habtoor Joins Shabwa Eid al-Adha celebration, affirms Sana'a as Haven Yemeni resistance to Occupation
Dr. Abdulaziz Saleh Bin Habtoor, a member of the Supreme Political Council, on Sunday participated in an Eid al-Adha event organized by the local authority and Executive Office in Shabwa governorate.
Addressing the gathering, Dr. Bin Habtoor conveyed greetings and congratulations from the Leader of the Revolution, Sayyed Abdulmalik Badr al-Din al-Houthi, and Mahdi al-Mashat, President of the Supreme Political Council. He underscored the leadership's commitment to the people of Shabwa and the southern and eastern governorates.
Dr. Bin Habtoor emphasized Sana'a's historical role as a refuge for all Yemenis, not only during current challenges but consistently since the 1940s, 50s, and 60s, affirming its enduring status as Yemen's capital, particularly during difficult periods. He drew parallels to the suffering endured by southern governorates under British occupation and a subsequent "totalitarian regime," noting that Sana'a provided a welcoming haven.
He explained that Yemenis' decision to rally behind the leader of the revolution stems from their refusal to accept any colonizer, whether "small or large," including "Britain or its tools and creations, such as the UAE and Saudi Arabia," stressing that Yemenis have never and will never accept such occupiers. Dr. Bin Habtoor referenced historical resistance, including the revolt against Captain Haines in Aden 150 years ago, and the resistance in southern Abyan, Hadhramaut, the Awaliq Mountains, and Bayhan, which received support from northern Yemen at the time.
He commended Shabwa Governorate for hosting the event, which he said reaffirmed continuous support for the revolutionary, political, and military leadership's decisions regarding Palestinian rights and addressed issues concerning the governorate's populace.
Attendees included Deputy Minister of Administration, Local and Rural Development Nasser al-Mahdhar, Hadhramaut Governor Luqman Baras, Undersecretary of the Ministry of Administration, Local and Rural Development Jamal Al-Alawi, as well as local authority, security, and military leaders, sheikhs, and dignitaries from the governorate.
Shabwa Governor Awad Al-Awlaki praised the steadfastness of the people of Shabwa on the "front lines of pride and dignity." He highlighted the importance of believing in victory, citing the justice of the cause, the leadership of Sayyid Abdulmalik Badr al-Din al-Houthi, and the unifying political project of the Yemeni people as key factors.
Governor Al-Awlaki stressed the significance of building upon the goals of the "glorious September 21 Revolution" to establish a modern, strong, and independent Yemeni state with sovereign decision-making, free from foreign interference. He underscored the importance of Yemen's current battle in support of "brothers in the Gaza Strip," who are facing "genocide and starvation by the Zionist entity with American support," asserting that Yemen's honorable stance will be a source of pride for all free people of the nation. He concluded by reiterating the Shabwa people's support for all leadership decisions that back the "oppressed Palestinian people" and defend holy sites.
The event featured two poems celebrating the stance of the Leader and the Yemeni people in solidarity with Gaza.

Several Palestinians martyred, injured in Israeli bombing of aid seekers in Gaza
Gaza – SABA: Six Palestinian civilians were martyred and several others injured on Friday evening as a result of Israeli artillery shelling that targeted a crowd of aid seekers near the Wadi Gaza bridge in central Gaza. This brings the total number of Palestinians killed in the Gaza Strip since dawn today to approximately 70, including children and women. According to the Palestine News Agency (WAFA) and medical sources, the Israeli occupation forces carried out widespread attacks across the besieged enclave, targeting aid seekers, tents, civilian homes, and gatherings. In Jabalia, 11 Palestinians from the Al-Dada family were martyred in a massacre following an Israeli airstrike on their home. Additionally, four civilians were killed in Jabalia al-Nazla, and a tent sheltering displaced persons in al-Saftawi area north of Gaza City was also struck. Airstrikes on Al-Tuffah and Al-Zaytoun neighborhoods in eastern Gaza claimed four more lives, while a drone strike in Al-Tuffah killed a child near Al-Sanafor junction. In Al-Sabra neighborhood in southern Gaza City, three people were martyred in a bombing that targeted the Al-Deiri family's home. In the western area of Al-Nuseirat Camp, two civilians were killed in an Israeli strike targeting a crowd in Al-Hasayneh area. Four others were martyred in Al-Bureij Camp in a bombing on the Al-Shalabi family's home. Earlier in the day, 20 civilians seeking aid were killed—five by direct gunfire near a distribution point northwest of Rafah, and 15 at Al-Tahlia roundabout east of Khan Younis, with 90 others injured. In Al-Mawasi, eight displaced civilians, including children and women, were martyred in an Israeli airstrike on a tent near Tiba Towers. Four more, mostly women and children, were killed in bombings on two tents on Khan Younis beach. An Israeli strike on another tent near the British field hospital in Al-Mawasi also left three dead, including two children. Since October 7, 2023, the Israeli occupation forces have carried out what is widely described as genocide in Gaza, involving systematic killing, starvation, destruction, and forced displacement, in blatant defiance of international appeals and International Court of Justice orders.
