Palestinian Resistance Factions: Abbas's Decision Violation of National Consensus
Palestinian resistance factions on Wednesday considered Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas's decision to hold new National Council elections without national consensus and with preconditions a violation of national consensus and a new departure from the collective decisions that set the conditions for any electoral process.
The factions said, in a statement received by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), that Abbas's decision perpetuates isolationism and division at this crucial, fateful moment in the history of the national cause, which is being subjected to liquidation, conspiracies, and malicious schemes. This decision calls for the highest levels of unity and solidarity among all components of the Palestinian people.
She added, "The Palestinian resistance factions consider the top priorities in this exceptional phase for our people to be stopping the Zionist aggression, the war of genocide, and ethnic cleansing; breaking the siege on Gaza; stopping the displacement and Zionist aggression targeting our people in the cities and camps of the West Bank, especially Jenin and Tulkarm; confronting Judaization and settlement expansion in Jerusalem and throughout the occupied West Bank; and supporting the resistance, which embodies the unity of our people in confrontation and steadfastness."
The factions reiterated their rejection of the President of the Palestinian Authority's call for National Council elections at this time and during these difficult circumstances for the Palestinian people, and of the preconditions he set for membership in the National Council, particularly those related to full commitment to the current PLO program and its international obligations.
They explained that these conditions were designed to exclude a large and diverse segment of Palestinian forces, actors, and figures, and perpetuate the Palestinian crisis rather than address it, especially since the current PLO policy has significantly contributed to the decline in the rights and status of the Palestinian people and their cause.
They pointed out that a true, national solution to the crisis facing the Palestinian people requires, first and foremost, joint and serious action to stop the bloodshed in Gaza and the ethnic cleansing perpetrated by the Zionist entity under the auspices of the US administration and with the complicity of the international community.
The factions continued: "Then comes the presence of a genuine political will that rejects monopoly and leads to a comprehensive national dialogue with the active participation of all Palestinian forces, factions, and various actors. This will lead to a comprehensive national program of resistance to rebuild all our national institutions on the basis of true partnership and mobilize all components of our people to confront the malicious conspiracies and plots aimed at liquidating the Palestinian cause."

Palestinian Scholars Association calls on nation to take action against genocide in Gaza
Occupied al-Quds – Saba: The Palestinian Scholars Association called on the Arab and Islamic nations and free people around the world on Sunday to take action in the field to support calls for popular escalation against the genocide and starvation being perpetrated in the Gaza Strip. In a statement received by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), the Association called for organizing protests and sit-ins in front of Israeli embassies and the embassies of countries that support it, starting today and continuing until the aggression stops and the famine is lifted from the residents of the Gaza Strip. The Association expressed its concern about what is happening in al-Quds and al-Aqsa Mosque, asserting that the Zionist enemy police have become a sponsor of incursions by Zionist religious pilgrims. It emphasized that what is happening in al-Aqsa Mosque aims to consolidate the temporal and spatial division of the mosque and to redefine the Zionist intruders as pilgrims. The Authority called for the broadest popular, media, and scholarly engagement with the Battle of al-Aqsa Mosque, especially on the anniversary of the so-called "Destruction of the Temple," which falls today, Sunday, August 3. The Authority emphasized that al-Aqsa Mosque is not only a Palestinian issue, but rather a battle for Islamic existence, and that any negligence in defending it constitutes an abandonment of the nation's trust and its religious and historical responsibilities.

Islamic Jihad: desecration of Al-Aqsa Mosque by criminal Ben Gvir, settler gangs is systematic escalation
Gaza - Saba: The Islamic Jihad Movement in Palestine considered the dangerous desecration of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque this Sunday morning, led by the so-called Minister of National Security in the Zionist entity, the criminal Itamar Ben Gvir, along with more than 2,000 settler gangs, a systematic escalation of Zionist attacks on the mosque. The movement confirmed, in a statement received by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), that the criminal Ben Gvir and the settler gangs stormed the courtyards of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque and performed Talmudic prayers in the courtyards of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, under heavy protection from enemy forces. This is a systematic escalation of the ongoing Zionist attacks on the Al-Aqsa Mosque and a continuation of the plan aimed at imposing complete Zionist control over Jerusalem, its holy sites, and the entire West Bank. She said: "These systematic attacks and provocations by settler gangs are an insult to the feelings of Muslims around the world. Through these attacks, the Zionist enemy deliberately seeks to extend its dominance over the nation's holy sites, foremost among them the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque, the first of the two Qiblas (direction of prayer) and the third holiest site in Islam. It seeks to divide and Judaize it, paving the way for its destruction." She added: "While we hold the Zionist enemy government and its partners in the US administration fully responsible for the consequences of these violations, we condemn the Arab silence and the Arab and Islamic nation's stand-by as a spectator to these crimes and massacres committed against Palestine, its people, and its holy sites, without their regimes and peoples taking any action." The Islamic Jihad Movement called on the peoples of the Arab and Islamic nations to "stand united to confront this Israeli bullying and thuggery, fully covered and supported by the US administration, because the danger of this racist, expansionist entity will not remain limited to Palestine, but will extend to the nation, its holy sites, and its history. Those who are complacent will not be safe from the Zionist danger, its ambitions, and its crimes if they abandon their religious, moral, and humanitarian duty toward Palestine, its cause, and its people."

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.
