The annual martyr's anniversary is an important station for providing determination and insight, renewing the pledge to follow the path of the great martyrs, recalling their exploits and the heroic epics they wrote in defense of the homeland, its sovereignty , independence, recalling the noble principles and goals for which they sacrificed.

This year's commemoration coincides with the honorable and heroic position of Yemen's leadership, government and people in supporting the Palestinian , Lebanese peoples and supporting the resistance against the Zionist entity that commits the worst massacres against civilians in light of the complicity of the international community and the negligence of the printing and client regimes.

The Revolution Leader pointed out the importance of this anniversary in establishing the correct concept of martyrdom and its role in revitalizing the nation, because some discouraged, hopeless and defeated people, as well as the enemies, try to present a false image of martyrdom and its concept, portray it as a loss, and try to weaken the nation, weaken its resolve, and weaken the strength of its position and will, through what they may talk about the topic of martyrs and martyrdom for the sake of God.
This anniversary also acquires its importance by publicizing the sacrifices of the martyrs and their achievements of freedom, dignity , victory in the face of the nation's enemies, and reminding everyone's responsibility to honor their sacrifices by following their path, paying attention to their families, and providing all support and care for them.

He pointed out that martyrdom in the way of Allah is one of the greatest values and concepts that the Islamic nation cherishes and is a sacrifice that embodies faith and loyalty to God Almighty, and this is the first thing that must be remembered and recalled when commemorating the martyr's anniversary.
Jahaf added, "The other aspect of the importance of commemorating this anniversary is to reciprocate the martyrs' loyalty with loyalty by identifying and meeting the needs of their families, as caring for the martyrs' families is a collective responsibility that requires concerted efforts from the government and society." He pointed out that providing the necessary support to the martyrs' families is not only a humanitarian duty, but also a manifestation of gratitude for their sacrifices.
For his part, Abdul Qader Othman, Director of Media at the Higher Authority for Science and Technology, considered the annual martyr anniversary a symbol of loyalty and reverence for the martyrs who sacrificed their lives in defense of the country and its pride and independence.
He stressed that the commemoration of this anniversary is of great importance on various spiritual, social and cultural levels, as it embodies the great place that the martyrs occupy in the hearts of the people through the activities and events that are held to recall the sacrifice made by the martyrs for the glory of their people.

He added that the martyr anniversary is not only an occasion to remember the martyrs, but also to pay attention to their families and provide them with all kinds of support and assistance as the least that can be offered in recognition of the sacrifices of their families.
For his part, Ibrahim Mohammed Al Duh said, "On the anniversary of the martyr, memories are renewed and the lights of the struggle and sacrifices made by the martyrs for the sake of the nation shine, and this anniversary is an opportunity to reflect on the martyrs who gave their lives in defense of the values and principles in which we believe, and to highlight the deep impact they left in the hearts and minds of the people of the country."
"It is important to remember that the martyrs were not just names or pictures, but individuals, fathers, brothers, friends, and they left behind an unforgettable human trace to celebrate them, so we must also continue to work to achieve the goals for which they sacrificed themselves," he added.
Businessman Ahmed Habbas considered the martyr's anniversary an invitation to reflect on the challenges facing the nation, and a station to draw lessons from their lives.
