Reading speech & messages... Al-Mashat outlines victory from defense council & reveals Shifts in Yemeni deterrence
Sana'a - Saba: In a pivotal address before the National Defense Council, His Excellency Marshal Mahdi Al-Mashat, Chairman of the Supreme Political Council, clearly outlined the defining features of the current phase—emphasizing that Yemen is waging a decisive battle that transcends conventional retaliation, striking at the core of the American-Zionist project in the region. His speech carried the tone of a victor, exuding unwavering confidence and reinforcing the collective understanding that the Red Sea confrontation is not an isolated issue but a natural extension of the struggle for sovereignty, moral responsibility, and justice for oppressed Palestine. President Al-Mashat did not speak defensively but in the language of action and initiative, declaring that all enemy gambits have failed—their propaganda, military, and political tools backfiring. He stressed that U.S. airstrikes and aggression have had "zero percent impact" on the ground. The first message was unequivocal: Yemen does not negotiate over dignity, nor does it yield to blackmail. As long as the aggression against Gaza persists, the battle remains open on all fronts—no truce before the assault ends, no calm until the siege on Palestine is lifted. Al-Mashat unveiled strategic military outcomes marking a shift in deterrence, most notably the disabling of the U.S. aircraft carrier Truman—a testament to Yemen's successful strikes in moving beyond threats to crippling the very nerve of American power. He dismissed U.S. maneuvers in the Red Sea as a "failed spectacle," a desperate attempt to boost the collapsing morale of the Zionist entity after its humiliating defeat in Gaza. Washington, he asserted, is fighting on behalf of Israel but sinking deeper into the same quagmire. Al-Mashat reiterated that Yemen fights solely in solidarity with Gaza, warning that those who expect Sana'a to retreat or compromise misunderstand this nation's resolve. Yemen's political and military compass, he declared, is fixed on the holiest cause on earth. With unshakable conviction, he dismissed U.S. aggression as "futile," emphasizing that Yemen is not alone but part of an expanding Axis of Resistance—stretching from sea to land, from Sana'a to Gaza, Tehran, Beirut, and Baghdad. Yemen, he affirmed, manages its battle with self-reliance and steadfast ideology, taking no orders from external forces. "Our sovereignty is non-negotiable; decisions are made not in embassy halls but in the halls of dignity and resilience." He debunked enemy propaganda about Yemen's losses as baseless lies, highlighting the unbreakable unity of the home front and the people's imperviousness to fracture or infiltration. In a solemn warning, Al-Mashat delivered a stark message to potential betrayers: "To those tempted by weakness, know this: A great victory nears, and God will separate the corrupt from the pure." He urged moral fortitude, calling this phase "the tremors before triumph." He praised Yemen's security forces for thwarting U.S.-led infiltration and recruitment plots, vowing severe consequences for traitors. The enemy, he noted, faces crippling intelligence failures, unable to predict Yemen's strikes as its forces operate proactively—not reactively—upending Washington, London, and Tel Aviv's calculations. The President hailed rapid advancements in military manufacturing and the precision of Yemen's naval and aerial operations, proving the nation is no longer under siege but a formidable force in Red Sea and Aden Gulf equations. "This battle is not merely about ports and ships," he stated, "but identity, independence, and sovereignty. Yemen has chosen to lead the free, regardless of sacrifices or the scale of media, military, and political targeting." Highlighting Yemen's ethical stance, Al-Mashat stressed that all operations comply with international law, exclusively targeting military vessels and exposing U.S. hypocrisy over "freedom of navigation." He commended Iran's model of resisting hegemony, noting Tehran's principled positions strengthen the Axis of Resistance and intensify pressure on the Zionist enemy and its regional allies. "The era of absolute American dominance is over," Al-Mashat declared. "Those betting on Washington's unchecked power in the Middle East are deluded. The battlefield writes a new reality daily." The speech honored Sayyed Leader Abdulmalik Al-Houthi's visionary and steady leadership, which turned aggression into an opportunity to fortify national unity and defensive capabilities. Al-Mashat expressed full confidence in the Yemeni people's awareness and resilience, acknowledging scholars and society's role in sustaining steadfastness. He called for heightened readiness against future escalation. Concluding, he proclaimed: "Yemen did not start this war, but it will end it. Palestine's voice will not be silenced as long as this nation breathes. No compromise on principles, no coexistence with occupiers, no calm paid for by Palestinian blood." Thus spoke the President from the heart of Sana'a—not with diplomacy, but with the certainty of one who sees victory nearer than ever, convinced that no just cause is defeated, even if the world stands united against it.

President Al-Mashat: "We have not suffered 1 percent damage at military level after all US has done"
Sana'a - Saba: The National Defense Council held a meeting today under the chairmanship of His Excellency Field Marshal Mahdi Al-Mashat, Head of the Supreme Political Council - Head of the National Defense Council, to discuss the latest developments and the US aggression against Yemen. At the meeting, President Al-Mashat expressed thanks to the masses of the Yemenis under the leadership of Commander Abdulmalik Badr al-Din al-Houthi, and the heroes of the armed forces and security services. "In this meeting, we are embarking on a jihad battle, each through his position, so work is the master of the situation for the next stage, and the government, local authorities and judicial bodies must move to serve the citizen, each moving within the framework of his responsibility," he said. "The aggression against Yemen failed from day one, and we were able to obtain information to thwart the aggression before it took place, which spared us a lot of damage that would have occurred had we not succeeded in obtaining this information," President Al-Mashat emphasized. He pointed out that the more the American enemy mobilizes, it means that its weapons have failed, and on the military level, the more it mobilizes, the more it provides a hunting ground for targeting it. He pointed out that the American used to come with an aircraft carrier and threaten entire countries, but now he announces the arrival of a carrier to replace the aircraft carrier ... "The confirmed information we have is that the Truman went out in the first days of the aggression , lost its command and control, now the arrival of a new carrier is only to withdraw from the defeat and failure that occurred from the first days, they told it to stay a month until the moral blow that spread among people that it was targeted, otherwise it became out of service from its first days," he said. President Al-Mashat stated that the aggression against our country once or twice was from the Truman, and the rest from other places, which we monitor, and are carried out by the strategic bomber that may have only struck Yemen. "Since God enabled our Yemeni armed forces to take the Truman out of readiness, to achieve something for the enemy that forced him to bring other pieces and use other weapons, this is a great victory from God Almighty," he added. He reiterated the steadfastness of the position announced by the Leader and never retreating from it, whatever the challenges and whatever the consequences. He emphasized that supporting our mujahideen brothers in Gaza is a principled, moral, Islamic , humanitarian position, we will not retreat from it until the aggression stops and the siege on Gaza is lifted. He regretted the unprecedented Arab failure, which reached the level of complicity, by some Arab regimes in light of the tragic situation in Gaza. "We do not care about any difficulties, obstacles or challenges we face as a result of paying the price for our honorable, moral , humanitarian position, and we do not care at all because the terrible criminality, the crimes committed, the inhumane , immoral siege and the Arab negligence force us to have a position, whatever the consequences," he said. President Al-Mashat congratulated the success of Iranian diplomacy in resolving its issues with its opponents. "Just as we supported, encouraged and congratulated it in its success with Saudi Arabia, we have now resolved its files through the diligence of its diplomacy and its remarkable success in lifting sanctions on it, and we congratulate and applaud the success of the Iranian diplomacy in this regard," he said. He added, "We are now facing US aggression as a result of our humanitarian, honorable , moral stance on the crimes , horrible genocidal war in Gaza, and the US role came on this basis, in the context of supporting Zionist criminality." He emphasized that the American aggression against our country comes in the same battle, because the American and Israeli are trying to isolate the Palestinian people, and this is what cannot have the people of faith and wisdom, the people of nobility, magnanimity, faith and manhood, we cannot allow the American and Israeli to isolate our brothers in Gaza and the Palestinians. He continued, "The criminal Trump's attack on other peoples can go on, but the origin of Arabs, magnanimity and the origin of manhood cannot continue your attacks, and you heard yesterday from our master leader his strong position, neither you nor your father, Trump, can prevent us from performing our faith, moral and religious position towards the people of Gaza, you are in front of the people of faith and wisdom, and the world has seen the pictures For two examples, a man and a woman, the bombing continues on the shop, the woman is still practicing buying kut for her son and is not shaken as if she is a mountain of Yemen, while the man has another story, this is an icon for millions of Yemenis, this is an icon captured by the camera lens and behind it are millions of Yemenis from the steadfast mountains that do not care about your missiles, bombs or your strategic bombers, Mr. Trump." "This woman dismounted in front of five of your strategic bombers' bombs in a way that you would not have dismounted on the day I fired a nine-millimeter bullet at you, he fell , panicked , the whole world moved and there was a scratch in his ear," he said. He added, "When we observe Sayyid Leader and his strong positions because he relies on this authentic people, the people of faith and wisdom, Sayyid Leader came to meet the aspirations of this people, now the leadership is compared with this people and you have seen this steadfastness." President Al-Mashat also emphasized that the aggression against Yemen is a transgression, encroachment and defiance of all international covenants and laws, and the criminal Trump will be held accountable for everything he has done against civilians , civilian objects and whatever he does and escapes, whether he remains in the presidency or outside the presidency, he will be held accountable. "Trump thought he came for a picnic, but he fell into a strategic quagmire from which he will not get out, and I said it in a previous speech, that your presidential term is not enough to realize your ambitions and that your economic plan failed even among your investors in America," he added. He pointed out that there are leaks that we have seen in recent hours, as American wishes leaked by some American mouthpieces, to which some of its servants and servants of its servants may respond. "The information we have is that the American is trying to scare this and scare this from us, and here we emphasize that we do not pose a threat to anyone except the Israeli, the American for his support for Israel and his aggression against our country, who attacks our country and supports Israeli criminality, we pose a threat to him, and at the same time we do not care at all about the development of anyone in his participation in the American support for Israel," he said. The President stressed that things are reassuring at all levels, and all scenarios are ready, and every scenario has its possibilities ready, God willing, we are ready to defend our country , get rid of any aggressor against our country, we will monitor and evaluate events firsthand, to be ready at all levels. He expressed the hope that no one will get involved in this battle, as it will bring them shame, disgrace and defeat. "We are leaning on a strategic strength represented in the unity of leadership, one leadership for this country, Sayyid Abdulmalik Badreddin al-Houthi, one people under the leadership of this leader, and a government, state and official institutions that support this harmony between this duo," he said. President Al-Mashat thanked the security services for their high vigilance and monitoring of anyone involved in this battle. "We will be strict, this battle has no title, no Muslim killing a Muslim, no legitimacy , nothing, now a Jew , a Muslim, whoever stands in this battle is monitored by the security services and we deal with all strictness," he said. He added, "I warn and advise, our security services are aware of many attempts, and I thank the honorable people who refuse to support the dollar, the rial and the dirham in exchange for the honor of the position and the justice of the cause, many attempts are being made by many mountains of Yemeni figures, he steps on his foot on all temptations, here I thank them and they know themselves." He continued, "Whoever tries to be tempted by the devil, I advise that we are coming to victory, and it is the wisdom of God that before the victory is achieved, the pillars are shaken, so do not be shaken, do not be shaken, be firm, before every victory comes a shake until God distinguishes the bad from the good, and victory will come after this pure garment is purified and becomes in a form befitting this victory, so I advise everyone who is tempted by the devil to stick to honor, this is a pre-victory shake, a pre-victory shake, so man calls on God to steady him." He pointed out that these are the last rounds, and it is true that there are vibrations, strong positions and rumors, but this is the earthquake before victory, according to the divine year, so that God distinguishes the bad from the good. President Al-Mashat urged the security services to be strict, and the judiciary to achieve fair and swift justice for all those involved in this battle. He pointed out that there is a movement for many tribes to make a tribal code of honor, while in the law and the constitution it is clear to execute. He reiterated that the armed forces are monitoring movements and preparing for any possible scenarios. "We have all the elements of strength after God, the strength of the leader, the strength of the people, and the justice of the cause, and we will embark on our battle , continue to support Gaza no matter what the challenges, victory is our ally, God willing, and all enemy plots will fail, as they failed before," he said. He expressed surprise at those who are betting on Trump. "What do you see in him and you have tried him, what are you betting on, I don't know, now he is trying to implicate , there is prudence and understanding, there are contacts , an attempt to avoid implicating many Arab regimes and many powers," he said. "Leave him in his quagmire, Trump is in a quagmire called Yemen, he just showed that the American is a major partner in all his Zionist criminality, that he brought shame and disgrace to everything that happens in Palestine in the face of the American..." He pointed out that Trump has brought shame to America that it will not get rid of it except through generations, and this is what the American people must realize that this foolish, clumsy, reckless man brought them shame and now the seeds of discontent in all the hearts of the world. He pointed out that Trump "proved in Yemen that he is a failure from day one, as he achieved nothing except killing civilians, and what he has achieved so far is the decline of America's reputation, because of the recklessness of this lunatic, and had he not been a lunatic and a fool, he would not have burned an aircraft carrier with which he was threatening the great countries in Yemen, now all the papers with which he was threatening the great countries are the aircraft carrier, the strategic bomber, and I add something to you, the electromagnetic system." President Al-Mashat addressed the American people, saying: "These three options, the people of America, were tossed by your fool in Yemen, you used to run the earth and the world with them, and now to bring them to burn them in Yemen, I say to all America's opponents, extend and do not care, his aircraft carrier failed, his strategic bombers failed." He pointed out that in recent days the missile strikes have been slightly delayed, and there are many on the local and regional level who say that it is over. He stressed that on the military level, Yemen has not been harmed by 1 percent after all that the Americans have done, not even 1 percent, and the massacres are all civilians and civilian objects, as for the military, let it be 1 percent, to be honest. President Al-Mashat revealed that the missile strikes stopped slightly because the American came with the pride of his defense forces, the so-called electromagnetic interception system with which he was threatening Russia and China, it is true that a group of our missiles were intercepted, but our heroic men within a period of no more than ten days bypassed this system, and two days ago the missiles arrived safely to Israel. "We bypassed this system that you were threatening Russia and China in ten days, isn't this foolishness to burn this paper in Yemen, the strategic bomber that all the countries of the world , the developed and great countries feared you from this plane, nothing, I watched the woman and I watched the man and the child live on the air, while hitting you how it does not affect, and it was burned. He pointed out that the imbecile Trump burned all his papers in Yemen, and ended America's reputation. He pointed out that the imbecile Trump burned all his cards in Yemen and did not do anything, and the opportunity is favorable for you, the electromagnetic system that was a challenge between him and Russia and China was failed by our men within ten days, and the B2 bomber, the news of which will come soon, God Almighty willing. President Al-Mashat touched on the ridiculous sanctions. "We have the necessary measures to stop them, and our people can rest assured that we have the necessary measures to stop these ridiculous, reckless, illegal and unjust measures," he said. He said that the Humanitarian Operations Center has a list that will be announced. "We will start, God willing, by targeting American arms companies as partners in the crime against our people in Gaza, and we may exclude American companies that oppose Trump's policy from our measures, our operations center will be in contact, we have communication and coordination outside the arms companies, of course." He pointed out that the other list of American oil companies will be included in the sanctions, the American citizen will realize that Trump has brought them shame and loss, so let them tell him no, otherwise they will bear the consequences. "The right is with us, God is with us, our people are with us, our leader is with us, we have a leader as tall as Nuqam, Atan, Aiban, and all the mountains of Yemen, and we have a people whose every citizen is a mountain on a mountain, thank God Almighty," he said. Expressing "thanks to the masses of our free people who respond to the word of our master leader , fill the squares , prepare for battles and meetings, as it is for our master and symbol of our pride, Sayyid Abdulmalik Badreddin al-Houthi."
