Prime Minister Meets Electricity Ministry Leadership, Assesses Damage to Haziz and Dhabhan Power Stations
Prime Minister Ahmed Ghaleb Al-Rahwi met today with Minister of Electricity, Energy, and Water Dr. Ali Saif, his deputy Adel Badr, and other senior officials, including the heads of the General Corporation for Electrical Industries and the Public Electricity Corporation.
During the meeting, they discussed the emergency plan prepared by the ministry and its affiliated agencies to address current challenges in the electricity sector. The Prime Minister was briefed on the extent of damage caused by Israeli aggression to the central power generation stations in Dhabhan and Haziz, which were completely destroyed and rendered inoperable, as well as the damage to the Asr and Jadar substations. Despite the severe destruction, the ministry, through the Public Electricity Corporation, has taken measures to restore services and resume power supply.
Al-Rahwi praised the efforts of the technical teams from the ministry and electricity corporation for their rapid response in restoring power through alternative emergency plans, despite the extensive damage inflicted by Israeli attacks. He emphasized that all damages can be repaired and compensated with strong will, particularly given the expertise and competent personnel within the ministry and electricity institutions capable of rebuilding and repairing the destruction caused by the ongoing aggression against Yemen since March 2015.
During his field visit to the Dhabhan and Haziz stations, accompanied by the electricity minister, his deputy, and other officials, Al-Rahwi inspected the scale of destruction caused by Israeli targeting. In a media statement, he condemned the "Zionist enemy's criminal aggression" against Yemen and Gaza, marked by "hatred, arrogance, and brutality."
He reaffirmed that Yemen—under its leadership, government, and people—will continue supporting Gaza, regardless of the repercussions, based on religious, moral, and humanitarian principles. He vowed to rebuild what the aggression has destroyed.
Al-Rahwi expressed pride in the public's steadfast support for the leadership, armed forces, and government, commending the Electricity Ministry's swift restoration efforts and the role of other key sectors—health, environment, transport, public works, oil, and minerals—in mitigating the aggression's impact.
Concluding his remarks, he declared: "No matter how the enemies conspire against us, we will not retreat from supporting Gaza until the aggression ends and the siege is lifted."

Australia tells Netanyahu: Power not measured by number of people you can blow up
Canberra - Saba: Australia responded strongly on Wednesday to the statements of the Israeli Prime Minister and war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu, in which he accused its Prime Minister Anthony Albanese of being a "weak politician." One of its most prominent ministers said, "Power is not measured by the number of people you can blow up." Australian Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke told the public television network ABC, in response to Netanyahu's statements, "Power is not measured by the number of people you can blow up or the number of children you can let starve." On Monday, Australia revoked the visa of Simcha Rothman, a far-right member of parliament from the Religious Zionism party, a member of Netanyahu's coalition government. The government stated that it had taken this decision out of fear that his statements would incite divisions within Australian society if he visited. The following day, Israel responded by revoking the visas of Australian diplomats accredited to the Palestinian Authority, a decision strongly criticized by Canberra. Just hours later, Netanyahu accused the Australian Prime Minister of being a "weak politician who betrayed Israel and abandoned Australian Jews." Canberra said last week that it would recognize the State of Palestine during the UN General Assembly meetings in September.

Germany considers 'E1' settlement project violation of international law
Berlin – SABA: The German Foreign Ministry announced today, Wednesday, its outright rejection of the Israeli settlement project 'E1,' describing it as a violation of international law, and urged 'Israel' to immediately halt all its settlement activities. Earlier today, the Israeli occupation authorities approved a settlement construction plan in the 'E1' area east of occupied Jerusalem, which includes the construction of more than 3,401 housing units, in addition to establishing a new settlement called 'Ash'ah'el,' comprising 342 settlement units and public buildings. The 'Peace Now' movement indicated that the approval of settlement construction in 'E1' was carried out at unprecedented speed. Last week, the extremist occupation government's Finance Minister, Bezalel Smotrich, declared that the 'E1' settlement plan effectively links the Ma'ale Adumim settlement with Jerusalem, severs the geographical continuity between Ramallah and Bethlehem, and represents the final nail in the coffin of the idea of a Palestinian state.

He emphasized the importance of international pressure on the Houthi militia to engage constructively and cease military escalations, particularly in the Red Sea. 'The Presidential Leadership Council remains fully committed to a just and sustainable peace that restores state institutions and alleviates the suffering of the Yemeni people,' Al-Alimi said, according to an official statement. Grundberg welcomed the Council's support and reiterated the UN's readiness to facilitate negotiations and coordinate humanitarian efforts.
