Chief of the General Staff Maj. Gen. Yusuf al-Madani reaffirmed the Yemeni people’s and resistance’s continued support for the Palestinian people until victory is achieved and Al-Aqsa Mosque and Al-Isra are liberated, Allah willing.

In two messages addressed to the Qassam Brigades and Al-Quds Brigades, Maj. Gen. al-Madani affirmed: “We are with you until victory, and we will stand with the Palestinian people in any new phase of escalation.” 

He said the October 7 battle and the Al-Aqsa Flood operation exposed realities, separated people, clarified positions, and inspired nations. They also, he said, thwarted the normalization project and made clear the nature of the confrontation between the resistance front and the normalization front.

He noted that free people across the Muslim nation had joined efforts to support Gaza, adding that Yemen had set a profound example in supporting the Palestinian cause and had placed its strategic position and all its capabilities at its service.

He stressed that neither aggression, siege nor wounds would deter Yemen from supporting Palestine and Gaza. He further affirmed that, by Allah’s grace, support for Palestine had defeated the support provided to “Israel,” and that the United States had emerged defeated from its confrontation with Yemen.

In his message to the Al-Quds Brigades, al-Madani noted that the Islamic Jihad Movement had, since its establishment, embraced what he described as the greatest and noblest obligation: jihad in the cause of Allah. 

He recalled the movement’s founding martyr and prominent leader, Fathi al-Shiqaqi — may Allah have mercy on him — and stressed that the Gaza resistance fighters had written one of the greatest epics on October 7, inflicting the enemy’s greatest defeat.
