The caretaker prime minister, Abdul-Aziz bin Habtoor, and Sana’a Mufti, Sharafaddeen Shamsaddeen, on Monday participated in the graduation of Shaheed al-Quran School first batch.

The graduates will serve as a key source for the nation in noble work, the PM said, expressing thanks to the state leadership and participants in the party.

“We can be proud of these – nearly 3,000 – students,” he added, as “they would help kindle the intellectual battle at the level of Yemen, but also the Arab Peninsula” against the enemy.

“It’s important to compare our intellectual and struggle works with those of the Zionist movement that causes disorder for the region, particularly in ruling the occupied [territories of] Palestine,” Habtoor said, congratulating Abdulmalek al-Houthi for this win.

This is the right vision to tackle the Uma issues and liberate it from the American-Western dominance, he added, noting that “Arab regimes are shackled, can fight no battle and lend all the attentive ears to American, European and Zio
nists instructions.”

Unless its brave and axis resistance, Palestine would be lost, he argued, hailing the resistance axis as the “only Arab, Islamic axis that can face the American-European imperialism.”

The PM called on all the officials and businessmen to support this project that would secure the Uma future and defend its rights.
