Sana'a - Saba: Prime Minister Ahmed al-Rahawi extended his congratulations to Leader of the Revolution Sayyed Abdulmalik Badr al-Din al-Houthi and President of the Supreme Political Council Mahdi al-Mashat on the advent of the new Hijri year 1447 AH. In a cable, al-Rahawi conveyed greetings on behalf of himself and the Government of Change and Construction to leader al-Houthi, president al-Mashat, members of the Political Council, Speakers of Parliament Yahya al-Ra'i and Shura Council Mohammed al-Aidarous, Supreme Judicial Council Head Judge Abdulmumin Shuja' al-Din, members of the three councils, and the entire Yemeni, Arab, and Islamic nations. The Prime Minister emphasized that this religious occasion carries significant lessons the nation must internalize to confront enemy conspiracies, particularly the Zionist project. The premier stressed the need for the nation to unite its efforts against this threat, rather than being diverted by secondary issues or internal divisions that have strayed it from its religious and moral duties. Al-Rahawi noted that the new Hijri year coincides with the great victory achieved by the Islamic Republic of Iran over the Zionist enemy, a triumph that has brought relief and pride to free people worldwide. He highlighted Yemen's own purest and most powerful images of sincere fraternal solidarity with the Palestinian people in Gaza, who are facing brutal aggression and starvation. Al-Rahawi urged Arab and Islamic peoples to break their silence and act in support of Gaza, recognizing that all are subject to Zionist ambitions that will only cease when met with collective force. The Prime Minister affirmed that the Government of Change and Construction will proceed with its general program, implementing directives from the Leader and President al-Mashat, with a focus on urgent priorities. Concluding his message, al-Rahawi reiterated his congratulations and prayers for the new Hijri year to bring more victories over the nation's enemies and yield fruitful government work.
