119

On Thursday the 19th of April 2018, Saudi-led aggression assassinated the Yemeni President Saleh Al Samad in Al Hudaydah, Yemen, by three airstrike on his car after delivering his speech to the people there
President Al Samad, the man of peace, as he was described by the special envoy for Yemen Mr. Martin Griffiths, he was the man of determination, a profound personality which is mixed between a high qualified politician and a humble Yemeni pure hearted, who are loved by all sort of people of Yemen. The Yemeni wisdom and courage which known historically thousands of years and mentioned in the Holy Qur’an, other Holy books and the other historical remains were embedded in the personality of the martyr president Al Samad

On the 15th of August 2016 president Al Samad was elected by the supreme political council which is a coalition of all the political, tribal, and other Yemeni entities who are standing against the Saudi-led coalition, and he was recognized by the Yemeni Parliament after his delivering the presidency oath on the 16th of August 2016, which gave him the legal legitimacy of being the president of Yemen , a legitimacy which was blessed by the Yemeni people on the massive demonstration of supporting the newly established government and the new president Saleh Al Samad, and denouncing the Saudi led aggression which took place in Sana’a on the 20th of August 2016, and the same date 2017, and 2018, those huge numbers of people, from different governs gathered in their capital city to deliver to the world a clear message, “we are the Yemeni people who have all the rights to determine our destiny and future, we are the Yemenis whatever you would like to call us who are choosing our leaders, not the king of Saudi or any other imperialistic power in the world could make us give up our rights”

Although all the difficulties because of the aggression and the blockade President Al Samad worked hard to revival the Yemeni institutions, the security and the Yemeni industry in both sides civilian and military industry. The achievement of the historical Yemeni hero president Al Samad was undeniable even by the international entities and as example of that; according to the mapping of the Yemen conflict from 2017 of the European centre of the foreign relations, the Yemeni army and the national committees which under the Yemeni government in Sana’a and the presidency of Al Samad are controlling the major part of the northern areas of Yemen which contains the majority of the population density. And those who live on these areas from Sanaa, Dhamar, Ibb, Amran, Saddah, Hajah , Hudaydah and so on, are the Yemenis who are living under one institutional functional government, providing them security and only suffering is because of the deliberately attacks and airstrikes conducted by the Saudi-led aggression, in addition to the shortage of food, medicine, fuel and other human necessities due to the blockade imposed by the Saudi-led coalition

Other areas which are claimed that they are under the (so called legitimate government which is supported by the Saudi-led coalition) are divided between many different groups controlling different territories such as Alqaeidah territories in Taiz, Abian, Almukalah, Shabwa, and Albaydah, and mixed control areas between the southern movement and also Alqaeidah in Aden and Saiown, in addition to mixed troops from the Saudi-led collation from Emiratis, Sudanese (the Janjaweed which are the troops convicted by the ICC because of rape and other war crimes in Darfur, south of Sudan ), those areas are suffering from the absence of institutions, security in addition to that all these different terrorist organisations fighting each other. As a result of this chaos in these areas, that the Special Envoy of the Secretary-General for Yemen was in Sana’a and met with all the Yemeni politicians there, including President Al Samad, but he couldn’t visit any of the areas that the Saudi-led coalition and the their local different groups and mercenaries, are claiming that they are under their control and the Special Envoy of the Secretary-General for Yemen mentioned the reason to not visit these areas in his official page in Facebook, is that these areas are not secure, Many other delegations from Europe are operating in Sana’a and many international organisations are working as well in the territories which are under the control of the real Yemeni government in the north because they have the existence of the security and the institutional Yemeni government under the presidency of the historical martyr and hero Saleh Al Samad, which the Saudi-led coalition main purpose in this war is to destroy this existence of a Yemeni national and sovereign state, and let the country enter into a chaotic situation with many different group easy to be controlled and fighting with each other, as it is the case in the areas which are occupied by the Saudi-led coalition, and the assassination of President Al Samad is only one of many examples of the hatred and instability project that the Saudi-led coalition are having for Yemen

One month before the assassination of President Saleh Al Samad in one of his public speech he said, (( if Saleh Al Samad will be martyr the next day his kids have to go back to their village because they will not have any place to sleep here, and this is great blessing from God) he said that indicating he is not leaving any material property for his kids and he is willing to give his live for his country

Rest on peace brave man, you left for your 6 kids, for all Yemenis, for all free men and women in the world, and for the history an inspiration immortal memory of a legend, a hero, and a martyr Shaleh Al Samad, who led his people bravely and wisely in the most difficult times
