Sana'a – Saba: The coalition of anti-aggression political parties and forces affirmed its full support for the stance of the Yemeni Armed Forces, as declared in their statement on Saturday, regarding their readiness to respond to any U.S. aggression against Iran by targeting American ships and warships in the Red Sea should Washington engage in such an aggressive venture. In a statement obtained by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), the coalition clarified that the position expressed by the Yemeni Armed Forces does not merely represent a legitimate defensive stance within the nation's broader struggle. Rather, it reflects a religious and moral commitment to opposing projects of hegemony and neocolonialism, as well as a principled stand in support of the nation's causes against the U.S.-Zionist alliance of evil. The coalition reiterated that Yemen, with its people, leadership, and free national forces, will remain steadfast in the battlefield and will not hesitate to support liberation and resistance causes, rejecting any aggression targeting the peoples and sovereignty of the nation. The statement noted that the anti-aggression coalition is closely monitoring the dangerous escalation led by the U.S. alongside the Zionist entity in an aggressive scheme targeting the Islamic Republic of Iran. This escalation is a direct continuation of ongoing war crimes against the peoples of the region, foremost the Palestinian people in Gaza, as well as the Lebanese and Syrian peoples, and the repeated targeting of Yemen.

'If US joins Israel against Iran ... ': Houthis' stark warning to American vessels in Red Sea- video
Iran-backed Houthi rebels have issued a sharp warning to the United States, cautioning against any military action targeting Tehran. It categorically mentioned that if the States joins Israel in its military aggression againt Iran, the armed forces would "target its ships and warships in the Red Sea". In a video statement by Yemeni Armed Forces on Saturday, Houthi military spokesman Brig Gen Yahya Saree said, 'In the event of the American involvement in the attack and aggression against Iran with the Israeli enemy, the armed forces will target its ships and warships in the Red Sea". US President Donald Trump is considering direct military involvement in the Iran conflict but has delayed a decision for up to two weeks. He has, however, called for an "unconditional surrender" from Iran. Iran's foreign minister Abbas Araghchi warned such action would be "very dangerous for everyone." Meanwhile, experts say only America's bunker-buster bombs could target Iran's heavily fortified Fordo nuclear site. Earlier in the day, Israel's military announced it struck Iranian nuclear research facility in Isfahan overnight and killed three senior Iranian commanders in targeted operations, while signaling preparations for a prolonged conflict. The conflict began on June 13, when Israel launched a series of airstrikes on Iran's nuclear facilities, military installations, top commanders, and nuclear scientists. According to a Washington-based Iranian human rights organization, the attacks have so far claimed at least 722 lives—among them 285 civilians—and left over 2,500 injured. In response, Iran has launched over 450 missiles and around 1,000 drones at Israel, according to estimates from the Israeli military. While Israel's layered air defense systems have intercepted the majority of the attacks, at least 24 people have been killed and hundreds more injured.

We thank Allah that we have reached Eid al-Adha while we and you are in the best of positions beloved by Allah and His Messenger: positions of jihad and fighting in His cause, martyrdom, and sacrifice of blood, soul, wealth, and all that we possess for the sake of the Night Journey of our noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) and our Holy Land.

What fills us with pride is your great heroic stance, which will be recorded in history and passed down through the generations in letters of light on the pages of glory and pride. From before and after history, God will not let your struggle, faith and sacrifices go to waste, especially when you stood tall like mountains in the face of the forces of injustice and tyranny. You paid a heavy price, befitting great men like you, for supporting your brothers in Gaza in word and deed. You were the most prominent arena in the nation in terms of progress in fighting, confrontation, military support, million-man demonstrations, and a resounding, blessed voice in all arenas of support and dignity. You truly embodied the words of God Almighty: "And those who believed and emigrated and strove in the cause of God and those who gave shelter and aided - those are the believers, truly. For them is forgiveness and noble provision." May God grant us and you righteous deeds, acts of obedience, jihad, sacrifices, and acts of devotion. We ask God to elevate the ranks of our martyrs and yours, grant healing to the wounded, freedom to the prisoners, and victory to our nation and people. Until we meet again in the courtyards of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque, liberated and purified, God willing. "And that Day the believers will rejoice in the victory of God. He gives victory to whom He wills, and He is the Ex Exalted in Might, the Merciful." And may you have a happy new year. May God's peace, mercy, and blessings be upon you.

Massive Turnout in Capital & provinces confirms Yemen's growing support for Gaza
Sana'a - Saba: The capital, Sana'a, and various provinces witnessed a remarkable mass turnout in the marches titled "We Continue to Support Gaza and the Holy Sites, No Matter the Challenges," reaffirming the persistence and escalation of Yemen's stance at all official, popular, and military levels in backing and supporting the Palestinian people and their heroic resistance. The million-man marches, which took place in Sabaeen Square in the capital and across all squares of resilience and dignity in the provinces, confirmed the Yemeni people, their leadership, and armed forces are moving forward—more broadly and firmly—within their principled and steadfast position in support of their Palestinian brothers as a moral and religious obligation. They emphasized that under no circumstances would they leave the people of Palestine alone in facing the criminal Zionist enemy, no matter the challenges and dangers. The Yemeni masses reiterated that the path of jihad and escalation is the optimal approach and the only language the Zionist enemy understands—the most effective means to curb its crimes, arrogance, brutality, and to thwart its expansionist schemes at the expense of the nation's peoples. The crowds expressed profound outrage and anger over the U.S.-backed Zionist enemy's relentless shedding of Palestinian blood in Gaza—targeting children, women, and the elderly— its treacherous and dangerous escalation by attacking the Islamic Republic of Iran, a move that portends severe consequences for the enemy and its supporters while threatening regional , global security and stability. The Yemeni people marched with one voice, declaring that it is a disgrace for Gaza to die of starvation and bombardment in full view of the two-billion-strong Muslim nation, which has yet to lift a finger. Instead of fulfilling their duty to support Palestine, some Arab regimes have granted the enemy trillions of dollars to facilitate the genocide and slaughter of Palestinians, while simultaneously supplying the enemy in an attempt to mitigate the effects of Yemen's naval blockade on the ports of occupied Palestine. Yemenis view these treacherous stances—which bring shame and disgrace—as clear evidence that these puppet regimes have abandoned humanity, honor, and dignity, renounced their religious , moral duty, and chosen for themselves a humiliating downfall along with the curse of history and future generations. In the capital, Sana'a, Sabaeen Square witnessed a million-man march in solidarity with the Palestinian people, rejecting the Zionist aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran and reaffirming continued support for Gaza at all levels, as well as the defense of Islamic holy sites as an unwavering, principled stance—a choice rooted in religious, moral, and fraternal responsibility that cannot be reversed.

Therefore, we emphasize that continuing to stand by Gaza, its people and its resistance is more obligatory than ever before, that we must be more steadfast , strong, and that we will continue to stand by them and will not leave them, God willing.

If you do not fear Allah and His torment, then at least be ashamed of the curse of history and the blackness of your faces in this world before the next, and God is the one who will help you! We ask Allah Almighty to hasten the victory of the oppressed Muslim Palestinian people , their dear mujahideen, to give us His victory, to have mercy on the martyrs, heal the wounded, and release the prisoners.
