Supreme Elections Committee revives Sammad martyrdom anniversary
The Supreme Elections and Referendum Committee on Wednesday commemorated the annual anniversary of Martyr President Saleh Al-Sammad with a central speech festival.
During the festival, the Chairman of the Supreme Elections Committee, Judge Mohammed Al-Salmi, said Martyr al-Sammad shouldered great tasks by assuming the presidency of the Supreme Political Council in an exceptional phase, during which he worked sincerely to unify the ranks and confront the American, Saudi and Emirati aggression with courage and heroism for the sake of God and the homeland, not for a position or gain.
"Martyr al-Sammad led Yemen in the most difficult stages, and accepted the responsibility, and viewed it as a loss, not a gain, and was able to manage the affairs of the homeland with wisdom, prudence, determination and competence," he added, noting the heroic positions of the martyr al-Sammad and the meanings of sacrifice and redemption that he carried in defense of the homeland and its sovereignty.
During the event, the Secretary-General of the Committee, Mohammed Al-Jalal, pointed out that the martyr President al-Sammad graduated from a great Quranic school and studied and was raised by the flags of guidance and left that in his biography, movement and jihad until he attained martyrdom for the sake of God.
He said, "Martyr al-Sammad assumed responsibility at a time when the country was experiencing aggression and siege by the coalition of forces of injustice and global arrogance that tried to break the will of the people of faith and wisdom, but the martyr had a vision and correctness in managing the affairs of the country."
Al-Jalal stated that al-Sammad was a president and a mujahid under the leadership of Sayyed Abdul-Malik Badr al-Din al-Houthi, noting that commemorating the martyr President al-Sammad is a station to stand before a personality that revives in the souls the meanings of pride, dignity, sacrifice and giving, and an opportunity to recall his positions in order to defend the religion of God and the nation.
"Today we express our pride and honor in the sacrifices of the martyrs, foremost among them the martyr leader Hussein Badr al-Din al-Houthi and the martyr President Saleh al-Sammad and all the martyrs whose sacrifices resulted in victory and honor for the Yemeni people who, despite the aggression and siege, did not hesitate or hesitate in supporting the brothers in Gaza and remained steadfast in their positions until victory was achieved in stopping the aggression on Gaza."

'Al-Ahrar Palestinian Movement' Calls on nation to shoulder its religious, moral responsibilities to protect Al-Aqsa mosque
Gaza – Saba: The Al-Ahrar Palestinian Movement today, Thursday, called on the Arab and Islamic nations to assume their religious, historical, and moral responsibilities in safeguarding the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque against the Zionist enemy's Judaization schemes targeting the holy city. In a statement received by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), the movement extended a salute of pride and honor to the Palestinian people everywhere, especially in the Gaza Strip, who are enduring what it described as the most brutal genocide known to humanity, and to its valiant resistance, which has stood firm and continues to endure in the face of the criminal Zionist aggression and its Nazi practices, resisting with all available strength and determination. The movement declared: 'We have no option but resistance, steadfastness, and remaining rooted in this land.' It stressed that the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque represents the core of the struggle with the criminal Zionist enemy and a purely religious symbol, over which the enemy has no legitimacy to claim even an inch. The movement also called on the Palestinian people in Quds, the occupied interior, and throughout the occupied West Bank to flock to Al-Aqsa, remain steadfast there, observe i'tikaf (spiritual retreat), and confront every attempt by Zionist extremists to storm or desecrate it, thwarting their malicious schemes.

UNRWA stressed the need for an immediate ceasefire to ensure the continued provision of essential assistance to the displaced and those in need. With American and European support, the Israeli enemy army has continued to commit genocidal crimes in the Gaza Strip since October 7, 2023, killing 62,192 Palestinian civilians, the majority of whom were children and women, and injuring 157,114 others. This is a preliminary toll, with thousands of victims still buried under the rubble and on the streets, unable to be reached by ambulance and rescue crews.
