Israel can’t break resistance front’s will by assassinating its leaders, says Houthi

The leader of Yemen’s Ansarullah resistance movement has offered his sincere condolences over the martyrdom of Hezbollah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, stating that Israel is gravely mistaken to think it can break the resistance front’s will by assassinating its leaders and commanders.

“The Muslim world is mourning with immense sorrow, grief and pain the loss of our dear brother and formidable warrior Nasrallah. We extend our condolences to his family, Hezbollah, the Lebanese nation as well as Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, Palestinians and all freedom-loving people of the world,” Abdul-Malik al-Houthi said in a televised speech broadcast live from the Yemeni capital Sana’a on Saturday evening.

He described the loss of the late Hezbollah chief as a great tragedy for the entire Muslim world, stating that Nasrallah was a great and successful leader who embodied the values and ethics of Islam.

World reacts to martyrdom of Hezbollah chief Nasrallah in Israeli strike on Beirut

World leaders and regional figures have reacted to the martyrdom of Hezbollah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, expressing condolences and condemning the Zionist regime for the treacherous act.

“The path of Nasrallah will continue. Hezbollah keeps up the spirit of faith, and continues the legacy of Imam Hussein (AS), the third Shia Imam, in the course of struggle against Israel.

“The Zionist enemy is gravely mistaken to think it can break the will of the Axis of Resistance through killing its leaders. Israeli assassinations of resistance leaders have consolidated resistance fighters’ determination,” Houthi noted.

The Ansarullah leader noted that the Axis of Resistance is resolute to step up its anti-Israel operations, no matter what the extent of sacrifices would be.

“The Zionist enemy will not manage to achieve its ambitions, and its collapse is inevitable," Houthi said. “We will not abandon Palestinian and Lebanese nations. I give them assurances that we will remain steadfast and their blood will not go in vain,” he added.

On Friday, Israeli warplanes carried out a large strike against Haret Hreik neighborhood of Beirut’s densely populated southern suburb of Dahiyeh, flattening at least six residential buildings.

The attacks came as part of the regime’s escalation against Lebanon that has been targeting the country since October 7, when Tel Aviv launched a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip.

Nasrallah led Hezbollah for more than three decades. He was elected secretary-general of Hezbollah in 1992, aged 32, after an Israeli helicopter gunship killed his predecessor, Sayyed Abbas al-Musawi.
