Chairman of the Yemeni Presidential Leadership Council Dr. Rashad Al-Alimi asserted the Yemenis' keenness to continue fighting what he described the "Houthi nightmare", calling on the international community to exert more efforts to re-establish security, stability and bring the Houthi militias to the negotiations' table.

He made his remarks on the sideline of Munich 59th Security Conference in Germany.

Al-Alimi affirmed that the Yemeni people will never "give up or surrender" in their struggle for overcoming the nightmare of the terrorist Houthi militias and their Iranian-sponsored spoiler scheme, stressing that all Yemenis will keep on fighting for a comprehensive and just peace, based on the agreed on terms of peace reference, specially the UNSCR 2216.

He further called on the international community to provide the Presidential Leadership Council and the government with more support including moving from humanitarian and relief interventions to the economic and sustainable developmental plans, funneling financial pledges of the relief organizations and UN's agencies through Yemen's Central Bank in Aden.

Al-Alimi stressed that the Houthi militias do not represent a peace project in Yemen, considering their history since the militias carried out their Iranian Revolutionary Guard-backed coup against the national consensus in September 2014.

Syria’s Military Operations Command Targets Warlords, Associates of Asma al-Assad

Detainees at Hama Central Prison, who surrendered or were captured during battles that toppled Assad regime positions, will face trial on Thursday, a UK-based war monitor reported.
According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR), trials will be held in batches.
A judicial committee linked to the Justice Ministry of the interim government formed by Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) will handle the cases, SOHR director Rami Abdul Rahman told Asharq Al-Awsat.
The “Military Command Administration” is carrying out raids in Syria’s coastal regions, Hama, and Homs to arrest warlords accused of profiting from the conflict, the SOHR reported.
The campaign targets figures tied to regime leaders, including associates of Asma al-Assad, the ousted president’s wife, and former officials accused of war crimes.
The campaign is targeting officers, militias, and informants accused of crimes against Syrians, according to the SOHR.
After the regime’s collapse and intensified fighting, hundreds of officers and fighters surrendered, with many now detained as prisoners of war.
The SOHR has urged treating detainees according to international laws, allowing them to contact their families, and ensuring fair trials before independent courts.
The organization also called for convicted individuals to be informed of legal procedures and the timelines for each step.

The White Helmets have uncovered around 20 unidentified bodies and skeletal remains in a drug warehouse near the Sayyida Zainab area in Damascus, Syrian Civil Defense official Ammar Al-Salmo said on Wednesday.
Sayyida Zainab, a southern Damascus district, was a Hezbollah and Iranian-backed militia stronghold since 2012. These groups claimed to defend the site during Syria’s uprising. According to AFP, they have now been replaced by local armed groups.
Al-Salmo, speaking near the shrine, said, “We received reports of foul odors and remains in the warehouse.”
A small refrigerator held about 10 decomposed bodies, with bones and skulls scattered across the room.
The remains, believed to be 1-2 years old, were collected for DNA testing.
Bashar al-Assad fled Syria on December 8 after opposition forces led by Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham launched a rapid offensive, ending 13 years of his regime’s oppression of opposition protests.
The SOHR reported that military authorities are prosecuting individuals linked to war crimes under public pressure for justice and to prevent acts of personal retribution. Accountability for crimes remains a core demand of the Syrian revolution.
