🇮🇶 | According to the announced figures, 19,999,870 mourners gathered at the holy shrines of Karbala to commemorate Arbaeen this year. The total attendance was slightly lower than in previous years, largely due to a combination of factors, including the regional war situation, travel restrictions, flight disruptions, security concerns, travel advisories, and the rejection of many travel requests.

It should also be noted that around 2.8 million Iranian pilgrims had already returned from Iraq before the final stages of the pilgrimage, while millions of others remained in Karbala and along the pilgrimage routes during the commemorations.

Special appreciation is due to the administrations of the holy shrines, the local authorities of Karbala, Najaf, Kadhimayn, Samarra, and Baghdad, whose extensive planning and coordination helped accommodate such a vast number of pilgrims. Gratitude is also extended to the resistance leaders, the noble Maraji’, the IRGC, the Basij, and the volunteers of the Popular Mobilization Forces (Hashd al-Shaabi), as well as the countless Iraqi & international volunteers, mawkib organisers, clerics and media men whose tireless efforts ensured the safety, hospitality, and smooth conduct of one of the world’s largest annual religious gatherings.

🇾🇪 | Statement Issued by the Yemeni Armed Forces:

In the Name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful

Allah the Almighty said:

“And whoever defends himself after having been wronged, there is no blame upon them.” (Qur’an 42:41)

As part of implementing the Yemeni Armed Forces’ decision to impose a maritime navigation ban on the Saudi enemy, and to reinforce the principle of “blockade in return for blockade,” the Yemeni Armed Forces, by the grace of Allah, successfully targeted the Saudi oil tanker “Wafaa” north of the Red Sea off the Yanbu region with a number of ballistic missiles. The strike hit its target accurately, by the grace of Allah.

With this operation, the total number of Saudi oil tankers targeted by our forces has reached eight since the maritime blockade began on 22 July.

Meanwhile, the total number of Saudi oil tankers prevented from continuing their voyages and forced to turn back in the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea has reached 29.

Following the Yemeni Armed Forces’ success, by the grace of Allah, in tightening the naval blockade against the Saudi enemy from the Bab al-Mandab Strait in the southern Red Sea, the Saudi side redirected its oil tankers toward the northern Red Sea.

Accordingly, the Yemeni Armed Forces affirm that their operations will continue and escalate in targeting Saudi oil tankers in the northern Red Sea in order to close all maritime routes to the Saudi side and prevent its passage, thereby reinforcing the principle of “blockade in return for blockade,” regardless of the consequences and repercussions, placing their trust in Allah and relying upon Him.

📌| The same media outlets that repeatedly claimed years ago that Imam Ali Khamenei had died, alleged that Imam Mujtaba Khamenei owned secret assets in Dubai, and asserted that Hamas stored weapons beneath hospitals are now telling you that the United States is running out of weapons stockpiles. If you choose to believe every narrative they publish, be prepared for the day when those very same outlets announce the arrival of a new, more advanced, and unprecedented arsenal to hit your head directly.

Repeatedly accepting contradictory narratives without scrutiny weakens your ability to assess information critically, while those engaged in information warfare never tire. If they identify that your weakness is believing every headline at face value, they will continue exploiting that vulnerability without hesitation.
