Velayati made the remarks in a meeting with leaders of Zaidi community of Yemen.

Velayati congratulated victories of Yemeni people.

He described developments in Yemen as unprecedented in the history of the nation.

Velayati compared Ansarollah of Yemen with Hezbollah of Lebanon, saying, "Ansarollah in Yemen has played the same role that Hezbollah plays in Lebanon."

"In different situations in Lebanon, Hezbollah fights alongside the army with enemies of the nation," Velayati said.

"The fact that the Yemeni army joined the nation's movement very soon indicates that Ansarollah's movement has been wise."

"We are sure that the ultimate victory of Ansarollah in Yemen is imminent," Velayati said.

He noted that the first issue of the Muslim world is Palestine, adding the Muslims should together continue with campaign until Palestine regains the occupied territories and national sovereignty.

Velayati referred to Yemen's strategic position in the region, underlining that the road to liberation of Palestine passes through Yemen.
