Yemen marks 12th anniversary of September 21 revolution

21 September Revolution Abdul-Malik al-Houthi Yemeni sovereignty Houthi militia national independence

The 12th anniversary of the September 21 revolution was marked by various activities in Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen. Abdul-Malik al-Houthi delivered a speech emphasizing that the revolution was a necessary step to achieve national independence, restore sovereignty, and end foreign dependency and corruption.

Officials and supporters highlighted the revolution's role in developing Yemen's domestic military capabilities, specifically in missile and drone technology. They asserted that the movement has successfully moved the country away from foreign guardianship and toward self-sufficiency.

In contrast to the official celebrations and the declaration of a public holiday by the Sanaa-based Ministry of Civil Service, reports indicate a lack of widespread public engagement in the streets. Some observers noted a gap between the official political discourse and the daily activities of citizens in these regions.
