American Massacre in Ras Issa: New Genocide Exposing Washington's Intentions
Al-Hodeida – SABA – Jamil Al-Qashm
In a grave escalation that epitomizes the criminal tendencies and American savagery toward Yemen, U.S. warplanes launched direct airstrikes on the Ras Issa oil port in Al-Hodeida Governorate, targeting a civilian facility, workers, and employees in one of the most horrific massacres committed against humanity.
It was a full-fledged massacre, cold-bloodedly carried out by the American aggressor against civilian laborers striving to earn a living—a scene reeking of deliberate murder and barbarism. These airstrikes were not aimed at a military site but at a civilian location, which, according to international and humanitarian laws, should never be targeted.
Dozens of martyrs fell in the first moments; their bodies were torn apart, their bones mixed with the port's metal structures, and their faces mutilated beyond recognition. The land turned into an unbearable scene of devastation in the face of such a catastrophe.
It wasn't long before ambulances and civil defense teams rushed to the site. However, American aircraft hovered in wait and struck again, targeting the remaining survivors and rescue crews—a compounded war crime violating every tenet of international law.
According to a preliminary toll, 74 souls were unjustly lost, and 171 people were wounded, battling death in hospitals—some missing limbs, others burned beyond recognition. Some are breathing their last, others lie between life and death, clinging to hope for a miracle.
Rescue teams are still digging through the rubble, searching for the missing. The port has turned into a mass grave. Beneath each stone lies a martyr's story; under every sheet of twisted metal, a disfigured corpse. The earth groans beneath the weight of the crime.
Washington showed no shame. Instead, it issued an arrogant statement claiming it had targeted a "threat site," as if the workers and employees of Ras Issa Port were carrying missiles. This unprecedented brazenness frames the massacre as a military achievement!
The American statement is not just an insult to Yemeni blood—it reveals a deeply rooted criminal inclination and open hostility toward anyone who refuses American dominance and dictates.
The Ras Issa massacre is not an isolated incident but a chapter from a single book titled"American-Zionist Genocide." What's happening in Yemen mirrors events in Gaza: the same killers, the same bombs, the same bodies torn apart under the rubble of global silence.
America's aggression on Yemen is no longer merely military; it is an assault on the free spirit, on Yemen's principled support for Palestine, and its rejection of submission. Washington has thus decided to punish the Yemeni people with bombings and mass killings, targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure.
The Ras Issa massacre once again exposes the hypocrisy of the international community and the complicity of so-called human rights organizations that remain silent. Western governments smirk in deceit, and the United Nations is too timid to name the killer. This silence is complicity in the crime and a stain of shame that will not fade.
America did not dare face Yemen's men on the battlefield, so it turned its fire on civilians—an act of desperation revealing its defeat after failing to halt Yemen's support for Gaza. When all other options failed, it resorted to its favorite weapon: the killing of innocents, mistakenly believing that blood would silence dissent.
America's history is written in blood—from Iraq to Afghanistan, from Vietnam to Yemen. Its present is no different from its past; its doctrine remains rooted in siege, murder, and destruction.
Throughout history, Yemen has never known submission. From beneath the rubble, its voice rises—not begging for sympathy, but declaring jihad, raising the banner of resilience, and sending a message to the world: these people will never be broken, will never forget, and will never forgive.
Yemen's resilience is not a slogan but a reality, manifesting in disabled ships at sea, in the unshaken stance of the people despite their wounds and suffering.
America's aggression only proves how terrified Washington is of the voice from Sana'a, the missiles that crossed the seas, and the positions that shattered Arab silence, making Yemen a symbol of dignity and honor.
The American disgrace will not be erased. The massacre will not be forgotten. Every martyr who fell in Ras Issa will remain a witness to the crime, and their blood will be an oath never to be bargained away. If America believes its warships will protect it, or its bases will keep it safe, it has not yet understood the defiance of Yemenis or truly read their history.
Yemenis are not waiting for superficial UN investigations or pacifying international litigation. Yemeni blood is the fuel of this battle and the banner of dignity. From this spilled blood, victory will be born, and a new chapter in the unbreakable resolve of a proud people will be written.

Intel Organization: "Israel" continues to commit brutal genocide, starvation in Gaza with US support
Gaza – Saba: The International Organization for Supporting the Rights of the Palestinian People (Hashed) confirmed on Sunday that while Muslims are celebrating Eid al-Adha, the Israeli enemy forces continue their aggression and commit the most heinous crimes of genocide and brutal massacres against civilians in the Gaza Strip for more than 610 consecutive days, with American support and partnership. The organization said in a statement that American support and partnership in the crimes of genocide against civilians in Gaza was manifested by its use of the veto against a draft resolution in the UN Security Council calling for an end to the genocide and ensuring the flow of humanitarian aid. The organization considered the American veto a green light that gives the Israeli entity the green light to continue committing crimes and grave violations against Palestinian civilians, in addition to continuing American arms exports to Israel and supporting the "American-Israeli" plan to distribute aid as an alternative to the work of international humanitarian organizations. Hashd called on the international community and the signatories to the Genocide Convention and the Geneva Convention to take immediate and urgent measures to halt the crime of genocide, ensure the unconditional flow of urgent humanitarian and medical aid under UN supervision, and abolish the illegal and immoral "American-Israeli" mechanism for distributing aid. It called on the countries of the world to boycott the Israeli entity and impose sanctions on it, including an arms embargo, hold its political and military leaders accountable before international courts, and support the work of the International Criminal Court and the International Court of Justice. It also called for immediate international protection for the residents of the Gaza Strip through the mechanisms of Chapter VII of the UN Charter and through the "United for Peace" formula to ensure the formation of an international humanitarian coalition and peacekeeping force within the framework of a vision to end the Israeli aggression, ensure the protection of civilians and civilian facilities, and provide humanitarian areas and corridors for the delivery of humanitarian and relief aid. Hashd stressed the need to enable UNRWA and other humanitarian organizations to perform their duties without restrictions or obstructions from the Israeli enemy, and to ensure the protection of its workers and other humanitarian workers. It urged civil society and human rights organizations in the United States to take action before the American and international courts to prosecute Americans responsible for and complicit in crimes committed against civilians, particularly American companies responsible for the distribution centers for American-Israeli aid. It also called on the free people of the world to continue their efforts and popular movements to pressure third countries to fulfill their moral and legal obligations to stop the genocidal war and Israeli aggression, support the Palestinian people's right to self-determination, end the Israeli aggression, and dismantle the racist settlement system. With American and European support, the Israeli enemy army has been committing genocidal crimes in the Gaza Strip since October 7, 2023, resulting in the deaths of 54,880 Palestinian citizens, the majority of whom are children and women, and the injury of 126,227 others. This remains a preliminary toll, with thousands of victims still buried under the rubble and on the streets, unable to be reached by ambulances and rescue crews.

Dr. Bin Habtoor Joins Shabwa Eid al-Adha celebration, affirms Sana'a as Haven Yemeni resistance to Occupation
Sana'a - Saba: 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. Whatsapp Telegram Email Print more of (Local)
