Velayati: Yemenis at forefront of struggle against arrogance
Tehran - Saba:
Secretary General of the World Assembly of Islamic Awakening in Iran Ali Akbar Velayati strongly condemned on Sunday the brutal attacks and military aggression launched by the United States and Britain against Yemen.
Tasnim International News Agency reported that Velayati, in a statement, emphasized that the Yemeni people are at the forefront of the struggle against arrogance and Zionism, and that the aggressors will be defeated, as they have been in the past.
At the same time, Iran strongly condemned the US and British aggression against Yemen, describing it as a flagrant violation of the UN Charter and international laws.

Yemen's Houthis "warn" companies to leave Israel
The Houthis yesterday renewed their warning to all firms investing in Israel, urging them to leave immediately or risk bearing full responsibility for any potential losses. Mahdi Al-Mashat, president of the Supreme Political Council — the highest governing authority in the Houthi-led administration in Sanaa — called on all companies investing in Israel to take the Yemeni warning seriously and to withdraw quickly, stressing that the environment is no longer safe. His remarks were reported by Houthi-run media. 'Companies that remain in the Zionist entity after our warning will have to bear the consequences of their insistence and be held accountable for any losses they may incur,' he added. 'We may take additional decisions in the coming days, if necessary, which would place investment companies within the Zionist entity at real and serious risk.' 'The disregard shown by some investment firms for our forces' warnings makes their operations inside the entity a dangerous gamble, which could come at a heavy cost,' Al-Mashat added. He accused the Israeli occupation government of failing to protect the interests of private companies, saying: 'The criminal Netanyahu government does not care about the safety of investment companies. It gambles with their security to serve its own interests. A government that ignores the lives of its own captives will certainly not care about the safety of others' companies and investments.'

Yemen:U.S. Embassy Condemns Continued Detention of Innocent Civilians by Houthis and Calls for Immediate Release
Aden- The U.S. Embassy to Yemen issued a strongly worded statement today, Friday, June 6, 2025, condemning the continued detention of innocent Yemeni civilians by the Houthi militia. Among those detained are employees of diplomatic missions, NGOs, and United Nations agencies—some of whom have been held since 2021. The embassy emphasized that these individuals have committed no crimes, noting that their work was focused on supporting their families and serving their communities. The statement described the detentions as a flagrant violation of human rights and international law. The embassy also pointed out that the Houthis are intimidating the families of detainees in an effort to silence them, preventing them from speaking publicly, sharing photos, or advocating for their loved ones. This campaign of fear effectively hides the plight of these innocent Yemenis from public view. The U.S. Embassy renewed its urgent call for the immediate and unconditional release of all detained civilians. It also reaffirmed its commitment to continuing diplomatic efforts to secure their freedom and ensure their safety and dignity. This condemnation follows recent reports by human rights organizations indicating that, since May 2024, the Houthi militia has arbitrarily arrested and forcibly disappeared dozens of UN and NGO workers without trial or disclosure of their whereabouts—acts that constitute grave breaches of international humanitarian law.

IAEA: Negotiations between Iran, US very serious
London - Saba: Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Rafael Grossi has expressed optimism about the indirect nuclear negotiations between Iran and the United States in an interview with a British newspaper on Friday. In an interview with the Financial Times, Grossi described these talks as "very serious." The IAEA Director General said: "I have seen situations where countries had to be persuaded to want to negotiate. This is not the case here. The talks are very serious." The newspaper quoted Grossi in part of its report on the interview, stating that Iran's nuclear capabilities cannot be eliminated with a limited attack. The newspaper then quoted Grossi as saying: "The most sensitive things are half a mile underground—I've been there several times. To get to them, you have to go down a winding tunnel, down, down, down." So far, five rounds of indirect negotiations have taken place between Iran and the United States, mediated by Oman. The main disagreement in these talks revolves around uranium enrichment and the lifting of sanctions. The United States is demanding a complete halt to enrichment and even the dismantling of Iran's non-military nuclear program, while Iran considers enrichment for peaceful purposes a right under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and stipulates the full lifting of sanctions as a precondition for an agreement, according to Tasnim News Agency. Iran maintains that its nuclear program is peaceful and is demanding guarantees that the United States will abide by the agreement. Whatsapp Telegram Email Print more of (International)
