Hajjah Women celebrate al-Wilayah day, affirm solidarity with Gaza
Hajjah – Saba:
Hajjah Women's Committee organized on Saturday celebrations in 10 squares to commemorate al-Wilayah Day of Imam Ali (peace be upon him) and express solidarity with Gaza.
Participants renewed allegiance to Imam Ali, emphasizing that al-Wilayah is a mobilizing, educational, and faith-based event.
The participants asserted that the nation's current humiliation stems from aligning with enemies of Islam, the Jews and Christians, and linked the aggression against Yemen to its adherence to the Prophet's family and support for the oppressed.
A statement from activists highlighted that the principle of guardianship preserves the nation's dignity, condemning Zionist aggression against Iran and the silence of Arab and international regimes on Gaza.
The statement reiterated condolences to Iran, affirmed rejection of Israeli aggression against Yemen, and renewed allegiance to the Leader of the Revolution, Sayyed Abdul-Malik Badr al-Din al-Houthi, pledging continued support for Palestine and calling for an economic boycott.

UN envoy warns Yemen in ‘free fall' and urges action to avoid wider conflict
UN Special Envoy for Yemen Hans Grundberg warned the Security Council on Thursday that Yemen faces economic 'free fall' and escalating conflict risks, demanding urgent humanitarian and diplomatic interventions. Amid the Houthi attacks on Israel and retaliatory strikes by Israel on Yemeni infrastructure, Grundberg stressed that fragile frontlines threaten renewed violence, particularly in Marib. Grundberg declared: 'The cost of isolation is high, and Yemen cannot afford more years of division, economic collapse and human suffering.' He urged parties to prioritize dialogue over military escalation and called for the unconditional release of detained UN personnel held by Houthi forces. Grundberg concluded: 'Peace in Yemen is much more than threat containment. It is, first and foremost, about the Yemenis.' Humanitarian conditions remain dire in the country. UN Assistant Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs Joyce Msuya reported that over 17 million Yemenis—nearly half the population—endure acute hunger, with 1.3 million pregnant or breastfeeding women and 2.3 million children under five suffering from malnutrition. Without sustained aid, she cautioned, 6 million more could face emergency food insecurity. Despite challenges, Msuya highlighted progress. A critical Aden-Sana'a road reopened after seven years, for instance, and the EU pledged €80 million in humanitarian funding. Operations, however, are hamstrung by funding gaps. She emphasized: 'Humanitarians are clearly doing their best, but our response falls short of what Yemen needs.' The ongoing conflict began in 2015 between the Yemeni government forces and the Houthi rebels, and the conflict has left many citizens homeless and in desperate need of assistance. It has been estimated that nearly 4.5 million Yemenis have been displaced, and the country as a whole is at risk of collapsing. The UN Security Council previously voted to extend its full support to monitor the operations in Yemen through the UN Mission to Support the Hudaydah Agreement, the validity of which lasts until July 14, 2025.
