Syrian artist Duraid Laham sparked mixed reactions on social media following he talked regarding “the slaughter of the Yemeni people.”
The pioneers of the communication sites circulated a video clip from an interview of the Syrian artist with Al-Mayadeen channel, in which he talked regarding the war in Yemen.
Laham said: “America and those with it in the region are the ones who attacked Yemen. This poor, poor people who raised the flag of Palestine in all their festivals are being slaughtered day and night by planes with artillery and missiles. No official, but some Arab officials on this issue, do not bat an eyelid.”
He added: “Oh, uncle, you will disbelieve us in the issue of the Arab nation. If we are an Arab nation, no Arab people will slaughter another Arab nation.”
He continued, “Our grandchildren began to ask our grandfather. Are we a single nation? I went beyond saying, of course, that we are a united nation. They tell me, OK, why are they being slaughtered in Yemen? Why are Saudi Arabia and those with it slaughtering in Yemen this slaughter? Why, grandfather? What does it mean that we are not a single nation because the brother is not?” He might kill his brother.
critics
The Syrian artist drew sharp and angry criticism from Saudi and Gulf activists following his recent statements.
Many accused Laham of “silence regarding the truth in one place and claiming to support it in another.”
For her part, the Syrian writer Lina al-Tibi said: “It seems that Duraid Laham, throughout his representation of plays written by the poet Muhammad al-Maghout, was acting without understanding the content of the words he was saying.”
While others asked, “After his speech once morest Saudi Arabia, do we see MBC contracting with him?”
supporters
On the other hand, many people supported Duraid Lahham’s words, describing him as the honorable heat who “said a word of truth in a time of shameful silence,” as they said.
Others considered, “His words came late, but it is an appreciated position for the Syrian artist.”
Duraid Lahham was described by many as the Arab resistor.
Bint Al-Hassan said: “Dureid Lahham, you are an Arab resistance artist, the pride and glory of Arabism. You deserve to be granted an Arab, Muslim and national identity passport that you pass through to all Arab countries. You give the identity of resistance and print on your forehead. “.

With the two-month truce approaching its expiration date on June 2, the UN envoy is working intensively with the parties to renew it.
The UN envoy to Yemen, Hans Grundberg, said: “Yemenis have suffered for a long time from the impact of road closures. The opening of roads in Taiz and other areas is an essential component of the truce, as it will allow families separated by conflict fronts to be reunited, children to go to school, and civilians to reach their workplaces and hospitals, and to restore vital commerce. I call on the parties to negotiate in good faith to urgently reach an agreement that facilitates freedom of movement and improves conditions for civilians.”
According to the United Nations, “Since the start of the truce, Yemen has witnessed a significant decrease in the intensity of fighting, accompanied by a sharp decrease in the number of civilian casualties. However, there are worrying reports of continued fighting and civilian casualties in some parts of Yemen during the past weeks.”
“I call on the parties to exercise the highest degree of restraint to maintain the truce and to fulfill their obligations under international law to protect civilians. I will work with the parties within the coordination mechanisms that established the truce to reduce escalation and prevent and resolve incidents,” Grundberg added.
