Speech event in Al-Bayda marks Imam Hussein's Martyrdom anniversary
The Central Security Forces branch in Al-Bayda Governorate organized a cultural and speech event today commemorating the anniversary of the martyrdom of Imam Hussein (peace be upon him).
The event was attended by Public Prosecutor Judge Ibrahim Al-Dailami and Al-Bayda City Director Ahmed Al-Rassas. Abdullah Al-Jamali, Deputy Governor of Al-Bayda for Administrative Units Affairs, emphasized the importance of reviving Ashura's commemoration to reflect on the injustice suffered by Imam Hussein and to draw lessons from this tragic event.
He noted that observing this anniversary reinforces the Yemeni people's faith-based identity in confronting tyranny, embodied today by the United States and Israel. Al-Jamali described the occasion as an opportunity to embrace values of patience, steadfastness in truth, resistance against falsehood, rejection of humiliation and submission to the enemies of the nation, while strengthening resilience against global forces of evil.
He also highlighted the ongoing genocide and displacement conspiracy against the people of Gaza, pointing out that the Zionist enemy and its global backers have failed in the face of the steadfastness of the Palestinian people and their valiant resistance.
Meanwhile, Colonel Mohammed Al-Dhahbi, Head of Central Security Operations in the governorate, reviewed aspects of the events of Ashura, the tragedy, and the oppression faced by Imam Hussein (pbuh), drawing parallels with the suffering of the people of Gaza.
He discussed the historical significance and revolutionary motives behind Imam Hussein's uprising, as well as his role in confronting tyrants and oppressors.
Additionally, Colonel Sharaf Danma, Director of Moral Guidance in the governorate's security apparatus, stated that Imam Hussein's revolution remains a beacon and a model for all oppressed peoples.

World Elders Council: Israel deliberately blocking aid from entering Gaza
London - Saba: The World Elders Council, which includes prominent world leaders, confirmed that Israel is deliberately blocking aid from entering the Gaza Strip, warning that the Strip faces the risk of genocide as a result of obstructing the entry of humanitarian aid, which is exacerbating the famine crisis. The group said in a statement on Tuesday that a delegation from the group visited the border crossings with Egypt and witnessed firsthand the deliberate prevention of life-saving aid from entering the Strip, according to Quds Press. Former New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark explained after visiting Rafah crossing that "many mothers are unable to provide food for themselves or their newborns, in light of the collapse of the health system," calling on Israel to open the crossing urgently. The statement indicated that the delegation saw evidence of the prevention of food and medical aid from entering and heard testimonies of the killing of Palestinian civilians, including children, while trying to obtain aid inside Gaza. The London-based council, founded by former South African President Nelson Mandela in 2007, called for the recognition of the State of Palestine, an immediate suspension of arms transfers and their components to Israel, and the imposition of sanctions on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, a war criminal wanted by the International Criminal Court. The statement emphasized that recognition of the State of Palestine "will not alone be sufficient to halt the impending genocide and famine" in the Gaza Strip.

Yemen bans use of foreign currency in local trade
Yemen's internationally-recognized government announced on Tuesday that all commercial transactions within areas under its control must be conducted using the Yemeni rial, prohibiting the use of foreign currencies for domestic trade and services. According to the state-run Saba news agency, the decision prohibits foreign currency use in transactions like tuition fees, medical expenses, rent and travel tickets, where foreign payment is not inherently required, reports citing foreign media. Ministers and provincial governors are tasked with enforcing the ban and reporting progress to the prime minister on a regular basis, Saba reported. This measure aims to strengthen the rial's sovereignty and stability. Currency traders in Aden told Xinhua that the rial surged to 1,617 per US dollar in government-controlled areas on Monday, a 40-percent recovery from nearly 2,900 weeks earlier. Yemen faces an unprecedented financial crisis after more than two years without oil revenue, which constitutes 70 percent of government income. The crisis deepened following Houthi attacks on oil export facilities in southern Yemen in late 2022, and amid the prolonged conflict since 2014. The war-torn Arab nation remains divided between the internationally-recognised government based in Aden and the Houthis that control the capital Sanaa and northern regions.

Ambassador Mills concluded by reinforcing the global consensus: 'There is no military solution to the conflict in Yemen.'
