Sana'a: Women's events mark Imam Al-Hadi's arrival, show solidarity with Gaza
Sana'a – Saba: The Women's Authority in the districts of New Sana'a and Sanhan organized two events commemorating the anniversary of Imam Al-Hadi's (peace be upon him) arrival in Yemen, under the slogan 'Imam of Knowledge and Jihad.' The events emphasized that commemorating Imam Al-Hadi's arrival is an opportunity to draw inspiration from his values of justice and effective leadership. His journey, scholarly contributions, and efforts in establishing justice and confronting tyranny and corruption were highlighted as foundations for a state of truth and fairness. The speakers noted that Imam Al-Hadi arrived during a time of fragmentation and conflict and succeeded in ushering Yemen into a new era of unity, truth, and knowledge—setting a model for the revival of the Muslim nation through the path of the Prophet Muhammad's family (peace be upon them). Following the events—which included chants and artistic segments—women from Sanhan and New Sana'a held two rallies in solidarity with the Palestinian people and in support of Gaza. They condemned the crimes of starvation and murder committed by the Israeli enemy and expressed support for the operations of Yemen's armed forces in backing Gaza. The participants affirmed that the Yemeni people's support for Palestine stems from the path of justice and jihad laid by Imam Al-Hadi (peace be upon him). Whatsapp Telegram Email Print

Hamas calls US envoy's visit to Gaza pre-planned theater to mislead public opinion
Doha – Saba: Hamas has condemned the visit of US envoy Steve Witkoff to Gaza's aid distribution centers, describing it as a staged act to mislead the public and whitewash the image of the Israeli occupation. Hamas accused the visit of providing political cover for Israeli occupation's policy of starvation and ongoing systematic killings of Palestinian civilians, particularly children. The movement highlighted that despite Witkoff's statements and staged footage showing peaceful aid distribution, the reality on the ground tells of over 1,300 starving civilians killed by Israeli enemy nazi forces and the so-called 'Gaza Humanitarian Foundation.' Hamas held the US fully complicit in the starvation and mass killing crimes and urged Washington to end its support for Israel's aggression by pushing for a ceasefire, Israeli occupation withdrawal, and lifting of the siege on Gaza.

The Red Sea Battle & the Beginning of the American Empire's Decline
Sana'a – SABA By: Political Editor The modern world is witnessing the downfall of the so-called 'American Empire of Evil,' which, through military dominance, positioned itself as a global policeman—exploiting a moment in history to enforce its will, suppress nations, occupy lands, and seize resources. That empire is now crumbling, and its collapse is expected to be as catastrophic as the trail of destruction it left behind—from Vietnam and Latin America to Afghanistan, former Czechoslovakia, Iraq, and many others scorched by American military intervention. As the saying goes, 'nothing lasts forever.' Ibn Khaldun, the renowned Arab sociologist, wrote that nations have life cycles similar to humans—youth, adulthood, and old age. Today, America is in its twilight, losing allies across the globe, including key NATO members in Western Europe. NATO, established by the U.S. after WWII to curb so-called communist expansion, was ultimately a tool to secure American interests. Under Donald Trump's leadership, the U.S. alienated much of the world in the name of 'America First.' The empire is now shedding allies, interests, and influence, as its antagonistic posture backfires. The world has watched with a mix of relief and astonishment as the Yemeni Armed Forces have dealt heavy blows to the world's most powerful military. The battles have proved that the decisive factor in warfare is not just weaponry but the will and resilience of the human spirit. The Yemeni fighter has exemplified this truth in the Red Sea and Arabian fronts—securing a resounding victory over a global superpower. Yemen's naval forces have established control over the Red Sea, enforcing an effective blockade on shipping routes tied to the occupation in support of Gaza. This demonstrates the Yemeni Navy's ability to challenge major powers and reshape strategic calculations in one of the world's most vital maritime corridors. These Yemeni victories have awakened other nations, prompting them to reconsider their positions vis-à-vis global powers—especially the United States. Long subjugated by American demands and overreaching expectations, countries are now realizing they can, indeed, say 'no' to the U.S.—just as Yemen has boldly done in its confrontation with both the U.S. and Israel.
