Yemen: Sayyed Abdul-Malik Al-Houthi

Leader of Ansarullah Movement, Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, vowed on Sunday never to submit to the US-Saudi aggression on Yemen, stressing that the Yemeni people have the legitimate right to use "all means and options" to fight the attack.

In televised speech, Houthi emphasized that the aggression is being run by the United States, which has been proved through statements of Zionist officials.

"The aggression targets everything in Yemen, including children," he said, adding that "the US fingertip is clear. It sets the targets and provides support."

"The US gave the Saudis the permission, and directed and ordered them to start the aggression," he revealed, praising the" patient Yemeni people", who are steadfast before the aggression, as hundreds of children and women were killed in strikes on various provinces.

Sayyed Houthi thanked the voices "which rejected the aggression on Yemen and condemned it," stressing that the great Yemeni people will never give up.

"Those who think their brutal aggression will force the people to submit are misled."

The Yemeni leader stressed that the people of Yemen "has the right to fight the aggression and the aggressor by all possible means, and to take advantage of all available options as long as the aggression continues," calling on Yemenis to get united and strengthen their internal solidarity.

Describing the latest UN Security Council resolution on Yemen as "unfair and was not surprising," Houthi said the Saudi regime poses threat against the Yemeni people, adding that the political problem in Yemen is an internal affair and the Saudi regime "has no right to interfere."

"It is up to us to define our future," he stressed.

Furthermore, Ansarullah leader accused the US of masterminding the attack on Yemen in all its details, and said the Saudi regime is "a servant of the Americans."

"Are the Americans and the Zionists keen to ensure the Arab national security and to secure the Islamic holy sites?" Sayyed Houthi asked, wondering "what Arabism that lies in the bosom of US and Israel!"

He also revealed that that the delay in holding the national dialogue was in order to prepare for the aggression, stressing that the door is open for the population in the south to defend Yemen against al-Qaeda takfiri terrorist group.

A coalition of 10 countries, led by the Saudi Arabia and supported financially and militarily by the United States, launched 25 days ago a wide military offensive on Yemen, killing 20 civilians in one attack, wounding hundreds and causing so much destruction across the state.

Media outlets reported that Saudi Arabia has deployed "100 fighter jets, 150,000 soldiers and other navy units" for the military campaign against Yemen. It also sent 5000 takfiri terrorists to fight against the Yemeni army.

The national military - supported by the Popular Committees - has launched a wide-scale campaign in the attack-hit areas, and managed to drive al-Qaeda and ISIL terrorists out of main neighborhoods of Aden and Sanaa.

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is known for training and funding takfiri groups and sending them to the conflict-hit zones in the Arab and Muslim world, including Syria, Afghanistan and now in Yemen.
