The event highlighted the Yemeni leadership and people's supportive stance for Gaza and expressed solidarity with the Islamic Republic of Iran.
First Deputy Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed Miftah emphasized learning from the deceased scholar's life of knowledge, jihad, and unwavering commitment to confronting falsehood and preserving the nation's unity.

Russia Prepares to Test New Missile Ahead of Alaska Summit
Washington - Saba: Reuters quoted American researchers and a Western security source as saying that Moscow is working on testing what appears to be a new nuclear-powered cruise missile, as Russian President Vladimir Putin prepares for talks with his US counterpart, Donald Trump, next Friday in Alaska. According to Reuters, these assessments were reached separately by Jeffrey Lewis of the California-based Middlebury Institute of International Studies and Decker Eveleth of the Virginia-based research and analysis organization CNA, by examining images taken by commercial satellite company Planet Labs in recent weeks and up until Tuesday. The two researchers agreed in their conclusions that the images reveal extensive activity at the Pankovo test site on the Novaya Zemlya archipelago in the Barents Sea, including increases in personnel, equipment, vessels, and aircraft related to previous tests of the 9M730 Burevestnik missile. "We can see all the activity going on at the test site, which is massive amounts of supplies coming in to support operations and movement around the place where they're actually launching the missile," Jeffrey Lewis said. A Western security source confirmed to Reuters that Moscow is preparing to test the Burevestnik missile. Lewis indicated that the test could take place this week, raising the possibility that it could impact the summit between the Russian and US presidents in Alaska. The Russian president has previously described the missile as "invincible" against current and future missile defenses. Lewis, Eveleth, and two arms control experts noted that the missile's development has gained greater importance for Russia since the US president announced in January the development of the US "Gold Dome" missile defense shield. However, experts say it is unclear whether the missile is capable of penetrating the defenses, and that it will spread radiation along its flight path. Researchers and experts said the missile test was scheduled to take place long before the Trump-Putin summit was announced last week.

Armed Forces Target Lod Airport in Occupied Jaffa
Sana'a - Saba: Triumphing for the oppressed Palestinian people and their dear Mujahideen, and in response to the crimes of genocide and starvation perpetrated by the Zionist enemy against our people in the Gaza Strip... The missile force of the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out a qualitative military operation targeting Lod Airport in the occupied Yaffa region using a "Palestine 2" hypersonic ballistic missile. The operation successfully achieved its goal, thanks to Allah, and caused millions of herds of usurping Zionists to flee to shelters and suspending airport operations. The Yemeni Armed Forces are monitoring developments on the ground in Gaza and affirm their full confidence in the ability of the heroic Mujahideen from all factions to thwart the enemy's moves and foil its plan to occupy Gaza and displace its people, Allah willing, just as they foiled the previous aggressive military operation, named "Chariots of Gideon," and its predecessors. With Allah's help, we will remain with you and by your side until victory, utilizing all our available capabilities. We will escalate our support operations until the aggression against you stops and the siege is lifted. Sana'a, Safar 20, 1447 AH August 14, 2025 AD

Yemen's Houthis target Israel's Ben Gurion airport with hypersonic missile
Yemen's Houthis launched a "Palestine 2 hypersonic ballistic missile" targeting Israel's Ben Gurion airport, the group's military spokesman Yahya Saree said on Wednesday. The Yemeni rebels have repeatedly launched missiles and drones at Israel since the beginning of the Israeli war on Gaza in October 2023. The Houthis, who are acting in support of the Palestinians, paused their attacks during a two-month ceasefire in Gaza that ended in March, but renewed them after Israel resumed the war. The Israeli military said on Thursday it intercepted a missile fired from Yemen. "A missile launched from Yemen was intercepted by the" air force, Israel's army said on Telegram. Israel has carried out several strikes in Yemen, targeting Houthi-held ports and the airport in the group-held capital Sanaa.
