In a recent interview, Ali Al-Qahum, a prominent leader of the Ansar Allah Houthi group, emphasized the urgent need for peace in Yemen, highlighting the devastating impact of ongoing conflicts and foreign interventions. He stated that the air strikes on Yemen, notably by US and British forces, have reached an alarming total of approximately 500 and have only exacerbated the humanitarian crisis. Al-Qahum reiterated that peace is the collective demand of all Yemenis, and those who oppose it are destined to fail. He outlined a roadmap to peace that includes prioritizing humanitarian needs, halting aggression, and rebuilding the nation.
Al-Qahum also addressed the recent assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, asserting that a response from Yemen is inevitable. He declared that military operations would persist until the aggression against Gaza ceases, reinforcing Yemen's commitment to supporting Palestine. The Houthi leader also criticized the delay in implementing economic agreements designed to alleviate the suffering of the Yemeni people, calling for immediate action from regional powers to adhere to their commitments. He warned that the ongoing conflict not only endangers Yemen but also poses a threat to regional stability.
