Iranian president urges Muslim unity in call with Yemeni leader

Iranian President Pezeshkian and Mahdi al-Mashat, chairman of Yemen's Supreme Political Council, emphasized the importance of unity among Muslim nations to counter external oppression and aggression.
In a phone conversation, Pezeshkian stated that such solidarity could prevent enemies from oppressing any Muslim nation. Al-Mashat echoed this sentiment, expressing that focusing on shared values and remaining united would thwart imperialist powers' attempts to divide and conquer.
The discussion coincides with ongoing U.S. airstrikes in Yemen, which have resulted in civilian casualties. The conflict has also seen the Houthi rebels, aligned with Iran, targeting Israeli and American interests in the region. These actions are portrayed as part of a broader resistance against perceived oppression and aggression.
Both leaders called for an end to violence and oppression, advocating for a collective stand against injustices affecting countries like Palestine and Gaza. They expressed confidence that through unity, Muslim nations can achieve peace, security, and prosperity in the region. (ILKHA)
