Nasrallah: Saudi war on Yemen not pursuing political goals

12 Oct 2016 - 18:45


Beirut, Oct 12, IRNA – Hezbollah Secretary-General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said on Wednesday that the Saudi war on Yemen does not have political goals and has turned to reflect Riyadh regime’s grudge and hatred towards the Yemenis who have refused to surrender.

Nasrallah made the remarks addressing a crowd of Hezbollah forces who had gathered to mark Ashura (the martyrdom anniversary of Imam Hussain (AS), the grandson of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and the third Shia Imam) in Beirut’s Dahiyeh.

Saudi Arabia considers that Yemen must always be subject to its will and rejects that Yemenis act independently and courageously and seek sovereignty, Nasrallah said.

Referring to a comment by Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei who had said the Saudi nose will be rubbed in the dirt in the war against the Yemeni people, Nasrallah said, 'When we talk of the victory of the Yemeni nation, it is not a motto, but it is a reality.'

The world has to know that the Yemeni nation will not fall in the imposed war and they will never surrender, Nasrallah said.
