Abdulsalam and Iranian Official Discuss Mutual Interests, Regional Security

The Head of National Delegation, Mohammed Abdulsalam, met with the Secretary of Supreme National Security Council of Iran, Ali Akbar Ahmadian, in Tehran on Sunday.

According to the Iranian Mehr news agency, the two sides discussed mutual interests and security developments in the region during the meeting.

Ahmadian praised the steadfastness of the Yemeni government and people during the difficult years, and also commended Yemen’s courageous actions in supporting the Palestinian people in repelling aggression and brutal attacks by the Israeli enemy.

The Yemenis have declared their open support for Palestine’s struggle against the Israeli occupation since the regime launched a relentless military campaign against Gaza in early October.

The Armed Forces have also launched attacks on ships linked to Israel sailing off the Yemeni ports. On November 19 as well, they boarded and seized a ship believed to be linked to the regime in Tel Aviv.

Close to 22,000 people have been killed in Gaza since the Israeli regime launched its attacks on October 7, the day when the Palestinian resistance group Hamas carried out Operation Al-Aqsa Storm against the Israelis.
