Yemen's Presidential Leadership Council, led by Dr. Rashad Muhammad Al-Alimi, has reaffirmed its commitment to restoring state institutions and ending the Houthi rebellion. In a televised address to the Yemeni people on the 63rd anniversary of the 14 October revolution, Al-Alimi stated that the decision to end the Houthi rebellion and restore state institutions is "irreversible." He emphasized that the military operation, dubbed "Dawn of Yemen," is moving forward with its national objectives to protect the country's stability and sovereignty.
Al-Alimi highlighted that the military operation aims to confine weapons and decisions on war and peace to the country's constitutional institutions, preventing any armed group from seizing the people's will or threatening international shipping lines and neighboring countries. He also reiterated the council's commitment to addressing the southern issue, supporting the outcomes of the "Southern-Southern" dialogue sponsored by Saudi Arabia, and seeking a fair and comprehensive solution to address past injustices and ensure partnership and a secure future.
The Yemeni Presidential Leadership Council chairman praised the significant sacrifices made by the southern provinces, the Giants' Force, the Homeland Shield, and the popular resistance in defending the republican system. He stressed that protecting the security and stability of the south and preserving the rights of its people is an integral part of the national responsibility. Al-Alimi also warned that the Houthi threat poses an existential danger to Yemenis in both the north and south.
In a message to residents in Houthi-controlled areas, Al-Alimi reassured them that they are not targets of the "Dawn of Yemen" operations. He urged locals to protect their children from forced recruitment campaigns, avoid military sites, and take advantage of the amnesty and safe return offered by the authorities. Al-Alimi also condemned the Houthi group's continuous terrorist attacks on vital civilian facilities and airports in Saudi Arabia, including the recent attack on King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh.
The Yemeni Presidential Leadership Council chairman expressed deep gratitude to Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman for their unwavering support to Yemen's institutions, the national economy, and efforts to alleviate human suffering. He acknowledged the close link between Saudi Arabia's security and stability and Yemen's national security.
