The Presidential Leadership Council praised the economic and development interventions by the brothers in the Coalition to Support Legitimacy led by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to alleviate the suffering of Yemeni people, and the state’s continued fulfillment of its imperative obligations, first and foremost the payment of employee salaries, supplies of goods, and basic services.

The Council was briefed on the military position of the armed forces in all its formations, and their high readiness to deter any escalation by the Houthi militias on various axes and fronts.

The Council praised the high vigilance shown by the armed forces and all military formations in confronting the attacks of terrorist militias, and thwarting their repeated attempts to return the situation to the square of comprehensive war, without regard to the long-term suffering of the Yemeni people.

The Presidential Leadership Council renewed its call to the Houthi militias to exercise reason and deal positively with the good endeavors led by the brothers in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to bring peace, stop the bloodshed, prioritize the interests of the Yemeni people over any other interests. The Council called the militias to stop openly compromising in the pain of the Palestinian people and their just cause, and instead empowering Yemenis to build their just state that respects human rights and the rule of law.
