Saudi Interior Ministry confirms sustained care, loyalty to martyrs' families during Hajj

The Ministry of Interior, through the Agency for Military Affairs, is supporting the families of deceased and injured armed forces personnel with a humanitarian program reflecting the leadership's commitment to citizens. A key part of the program enables relatives of martyrs and injured personnel to perform Hajj at the ministry's expense, along with providing psychological, medical and social care throughout the year. One beneficiary speaking from Mina, Ibrahim bin Abdulkarim Al-Zahrani — injured in the line of duty and brother to two martyrs — expressed his appreciation for the Kingdom's support. He said such care reassures families that the Kingdom stands by them and gives them strength to continue serving, a Saudi Press Agency report said. Al-Zahrani added that the ministry's efforts, under Minister of Interior Prince Abdulaziz bin Saud bin Naif, represent the state's respect for the sacrifices of martyrs and its commitment to their families. Chief Sgt. Salem Al-Qahtani of the General Department for the Care of Martyrs and Injured Families shared his 14-year experience serving the group, highlighting the department's close, familial bond with their families. 'We have followed the children of the martyrs since their early years, watching them grow — some are now our colleagues, while others are performing Hajj through this program under the leadership's close supervision,' he said. The department develops support programs for beneficiaries, demonstrating the Kingdom's commitment to honoring those who gave their lives for the nation and continuing support for their families. It also reflects the leadership's approach to supporting citizens and honoring the sacrifices of martyrs.

Yemen to launch National Knowledge, Innovation Index amid Intel exclusions

Sana'a – Saba: Yemen is developing its own National Knowledge and Innovation Index (YKII), a strategic move aimed at accurately monitoring and directing the nation's capabilities in science, research, and technology. This initiative comes as Yemen has been largely excluded from or given low rankings in international indices, often due to perceived political considerations, according to Dr. Abdulaziz al-Houri, Vice Chairman of the General Authority for Science, Research, Technology and Innovation. Dr. al-Houri highlighted the urgent need for this national index, citing the absence of a comprehensive national framework for measuring knowledge and innovation, along with pressing economic and social challenges. The index is seen as crucial for supporting reconstruction and development, fostering cooperation between public and private sectors in research and development, encouraging investment, and keeping pace with global advancements. It will also enhance transparency, accountability, and the assessment of public policy impacts. The Authority is collaborating with partners, notably the Central Statistical Organization, to finalize the YKII's draft. This index will identify knowledge gaps in Yemeni society, guide efforts to bridge them through informed policies, and provide a national database for evidence-based decision-making. Expected Impact and Objectives: The project is anticipated to bring wide-ranging benefits, including: Improving education quality and outcomes to meet labor market and development needs. Increasing the quantity and quality of research output, enhancing its relevance to societal challenges. Stimulating innovation and creativity, and boosting competitiveness. Contributing to sustainable development goals by leveraging knowledge and innovation. Enhancing local competitiveness among educational, research, and production entities. The primary objectives of the index are to: Assess the current state of knowledge and innovation nationally. Measure and track scientific, technological, and innovative progress. Improve national and local innovation policies by identifying strengths and weaknesses. Provide reliable information for policymakers, researchers, investors, and stakeholders. Help re-prioritize efforts to encourage creativity, scientific research, and youth empowerment. Index Framework and Next Steps: The YKII's general framework comprises two main aspects: Innovation Inputs: This includes six axes with 42 indicators covering education, research and development, investment, the knowledge workforce, communications and information technology, and institutions. Innovation Outputs: This consists of three axes with 20 indicators focused on innovation, creativity, and knowledge. Dr. al-Houri detailed the steps taken so far, which include studying evidence for composite indicators, examining global and regional indices, developing a methodology, and preparing an initial draft guide. Current and future steps involve finalizing the draft, piloting and testing the index, obtaining official approval, and finally, the launch of the National Knowledge and Innovation Index 2025. Dr. al-Houri called upon all state institutions to enhance cooperation with the General Authority for Science, Research, Technology and Innovation, emphasizing its vital role in advancing innovation and creativity for Yemen's economic and social development.

Al-Qassam publishes letter it received from Chief of Staff of Yemeni Armed Forces

Gaza – Saba: Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), published a letter it received on Monday evening from the Chief of Staff of the Yemeni Armed Forces, Major General Mohammed Abdulkarim al-Ghamari. The letter, published on the Brigades' Telegram channel and viewed by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), congratulated the heroic mujahideen of Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades on the occasion of Eid al-Adha, "coupled with pride and honor for your legendary steadfastness and immortal heroism that you have achieved in the fields of confrontation with the usurping Zionist enemy." Chief of the General Staff, Major General al-Ghamari, said: "The qualitative operations, painful strikes, and steadfast positions of faith carried out by al-Qassam Brigades fighters are a source of admiration and inspiration for all free people. They are irrefutable proof that whoever puts his trust in God and remains steadfast on the battlefield will achieve victory, even if all the forces of the earth unite against them." He added, "We support you, O Messenger of Allah, and we assure you that Yemen—its people, army, and leadership—will remain present on the battlefield with Palestine, with heart and arms, with stance and prayer, until the promise is fulfilled and the land is returned to its people." Al-Ghamari's letter added, "Gaza, which has become a symbol of pride, will not be broken as long as there are those in this nation who resemble Al-Qassam, men who have been true to their covenant with God, who believe that jihad is a duty and that victory is a promise from God to His sincere, oppressed servants." He renewed his pledge on this Eid, the Eid of Sacrifice, that the path of jihad is our path, and the fate of the enemy is defeat. Palestine is at the heart of Sana'a, just as Jerusalem is in our faith, our methods, and our compass." Whatsapp Telegram Email Print
