Sana'a: Honorable Stances with Palestine and a Haven for the Free People of the World
The Yemeni people continue to prove, time and again throughout their ancient and modern history, that they are resilient against conspiracies and will never succumb to external hegemony, regardless of the aggressors' arrogance. History testifies that Yemen has always been, and will remain, the graveyard of invaders and occupiers.
After a decade of war and blockade imposed by the US-Saudi-UAE coalition since March 26, 2015, the aggression has failed to break Yemen's will. Despite the vast resources spent to destroy its infrastructure, Yemen has emerged more resilient. The aggression, which has resulted in the worst humanitarian catastrophe in modern history, entered a renewed phase in March 2025. However, after bitter experiences, Washington, Riyadh, and Abu Dhabi have reaped nothing but defeats, disgrace, and shame.
Before this period, Yemen was under foreign tutelage, treated as a mere backyard for global powers. But with the September 21, 2014 Revolution, the equation shifted, and Yemen's decision-making became independent and firmly in the hands of its people.
Today, under the leadership of Sayyed Abdulmalik Badr al-Din al-Houthi and Yemen's free people, the nation has overcome many challenges and now possesses advanced military capabilities that can deter its enemies. Alongside its military strength, Yemen has also taken an unwavering stance in supporting Palestine, reaffirming it as the central cause of the Muslim Ummah.
The Arab-Israeli conflict remains ongoing, particularly after the 'Al-Aqsa Flood' operation. The Zionist-American enemy continues to target the region and the Axis of Resistance. The renewed US aggression against Yemen and the Zionist assault on Gaza is merely part of a broader battle, one that is destined to end in victory for the resistance forces, with Yemen at the forefront.
Yemen's steadfast support for Palestine stems from a deep-rooted sense of dignity, faith, and unwavering conviction. This commitment has frustrated the US administration, prompting figures like Donald Trump to issue empty threats in an attempt to deter Yemen from enforcing its naval blockade on Israeli-bound ships.
Following US threats and its military strikes on civilian areas in Sana'a and other provinces, Yemen responded swiftly by targeting the USS Harry Truman aircraft carrier and its accompanying destroyers four times within 72 hours. This demonstrated Yemen's refusal to submit to intimidation and its unwavering support for Gaza, regardless of the cost.
Analysts view the latest US strikes on Yemen as a dangerous escalation that could lead to a broader regional conflict. They also highlight the predicament faced by **President Trump**, especially given Sana'a's firm stance on continuing to target Israeli-bound vessels until the Zionist blockade on Gaza is lifted.
Thanks to its brave and principled stance, Yemen has become a beacon for free people worldwide, a force capable of reshaping the balance of power in favor of the oppressed. The influx of Arab, Islamic, and international delegations to Sana'a for the Third Conference on "Palestine: The Central Cause of the Ummah" stands as a testament to this growing influence.

U.S. Embassy in Yemen Reveals Houthi Financing Network Through Sanctioned Companies & Intermediaries
Aden — The United States Embassy in Yemen has issued a detailed statement outlining the financial and logistical networks used by the Houthi movement to sustain its military operations, accusing the group of leveraging a web of front companies, trusted intermediaries, and Iranian support to bypass international sanctions. According to the embassy, multiple Yemen-based entities have been actively involved in purchasing weapons components and smuggling petroleum products through Houthi-controlled ports such as Hodeidah, Ras Isa, and Salif. These operations reportedly generate millions of dollars monthly, fueling the group's armed capabilities and expanding its political footprint. Entities Sanctioned by the U.S. Treasury : - Black Diamond Petroleum Derivatives - Yahya Al-Asili Import Ltd. - Royal Plus Maritime and Commercial Agencies - Star Plus Yemen - Yemen Elaf for Petroleum Imports - Tamco Petroleum Products - Zahraa Trading & Agencies - Abbot Trading Ltd. - Gasoline Aman Co. In addition to corporate sanctions, the U.S. has blacklisted two vessels and their owners for unloading petroleum products in violation of licensing restrictions. 'The evidence is clear, and our sanctions are targeted,' the embassy stated, reinforcing Washington's commitment to disrupting financial lifelines that enable the Houthis' military actions. The group was officially designated as a Global Terrorist Organization in March 2025, expanding the scope of punitive measures available under U.S. law.

1 Day Left For Execution, Top Court To Hear Plea To Save Kerala Nurse Today
Nimisha Priya, who has been sentenced to death in Yemen for the murder of a Yemeni national, Talal Abdo Mehd and has been in prison for the last 3 years, is tentatively set to be executed on July 16. The Supreme Court is slated to hear on Monday a plea seeking directions to the Centre to use diplomatic channels to save Kerala nurse Nimisha Priya from execution. Indian national Nimisha Priya, who has been sentenced to death in Yemen for the murder of a Yemeni national, Talal Abdo Mehd and has been in prison for the last three years, is tentatively set to be executed on July 16. As per the causelist published on the website of the supreme court, a Bench of Justices Vikram Nath and Sandeep Mehta will take up the plea filed by "Save Nimisha Priya Action Council" for hearing on July 14. The plea, referring to Sharia law, stated that the death penalty could be negotiated with the payment of 'diya (blood money)' to the victim's family. On Thursday, a 'Partial Court Working Days Bench' of Justices Sudhanshu Dhulia and Joymalya Bagchi directed listing of the matter on July 14 after it was mentioned for urgent hearing by senior advocate Ragenth Basant. The Justice Dhulia-led Bench directed that a copy of the petition be served to the Attorney General of India, the highest law officer of the Centre. Considering the nature and urgency of the matter, the top court asked the Union government to inform it about the steps taken in the case on the date fixed. Nimisha Priya, a nurse from Kollengode in Kerala's Palakkad district, had moved to Yemen in 2008 to support her daily-wage labourer parents. She worked in several hospitals and eventually decided to open her own clinic. In 2017, a dispute arose between her and her Yemeni business partner, Talal Abdo Mahdi, after she reportedly opposed his alleged attempts to misappropriate funds. According to her family, Nimisha allegedly injected Mahdi with sedatives to retrieve her confiscated passport. Tragically, an overdose led to his death. She was arrested while attempting to flee the country and was convicted of murder in 2018. In 2020, a trial court in Sanaa sentenced her to death, and Yemen's Supreme Judicial Council upheld the verdict in November 2023, though it left open the option of blood money. The mother of Priya, Prema Kumari (57), has been tirelessly campaigning to secure a waiver of the death penalty. She has also travelled to Sanaa to negotiate the payment of blood money to the victim's family. Her efforts have been supported by the Save Nimisha Priya International Action Council, a group of NRI social workers based in Yemen.

Security Council Extends Yemen Mission Mandate to 2026
Aden — The United Nations Security Council has voted to extend the mandate of the United Nations Mission to Support the Hudaydah Agreement (UNMHA) for an additional six and a half months, pushing its expiration to January 28, 2026. The resolution, drafted by the United Kingdom, reaffirms the Council's commitment to stabilizing Yemen's fragile ceasefire and supporting humanitarian access through the strategic Red Sea port city of Hudaydah. The vote comes at a time of heightened regional instability, with recent Israeli airstrikes on Houthi-controlled infrastructure and renewed missile launches from Yemen threatening maritime security in the Red Sea. UN Special Envoy Hans Grundberg warned that Yemen risks being pulled deeper into regional conflicts, urging all parties to uphold the ceasefire and avoid actions that could derail peace efforts. The renewed mandate enables UNMHA to continue monitoring the Hudaydah ceasefire, facilitating de-escalation, and supporting dialogue between Yemeni factions. Council members emphasized the importance of maintaining momentum toward a nationwide political settlement, especially as Omani-mediated talks between the Houthis and Saudi Arabia show signs of progress. The resolution also underscores the need for unimpeded humanitarian access, with over 21 million Yemenis still in need of aid. UN officials called for increased funding and protection for humanitarian workers, following recent detentions and operational suspensions in northern Yemen.
