A million strong demonstration in Yemen confirms readiness to support Gaza

Hundreds of thousands of Yemenis gathered on Friday in a million strong demonstration in Saada governorate in the north of Yemen, affirming their solidarity with the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and announcing their support for Iran.

Hawzah News Agency- The mass event, organized by the Ansar Allah group at the call of its leader Abdul Malik Al Houthi, was launched under the slogan, “Answering and supporting the Palestinian people, steadfast and ready for the next round'', according to Al-Masirah channel.

Participants raised Yemeni and Palestinian flags, chanting slogans that expressed readiness to support Gaza, including, “We are ready and longing and racing to support you'', “With Gaza, the Yemen of the honorable, in anger, mobilization, and loyalty'', and, “Yemen of wisdom and faith, with Iran and with Lebanon''.

One participant expressed the demonstrators’ position, saying, “We say to our brothers in Gaza and Palestine, and to our brothers in Iran, that we are with you in any upcoming round of the conflict, you will not be alone, and we are with you until victory''.

In a statement it issued, the Ansar Allah group announced its full readiness for the next round of confrontation with Israel, affirming its rejection of any domination or control over the peoples of the region.

The statement considered that the continued violations of the ceasefire agreement in Gaza, the escalation of Israeli crimes in the Strip and the West Bank, along with attacks on Al-Aqsa Mosque and other holy sites, expose the falsity of international claims and the inability of the guarantors to compel Israel to honor its commitments.

The group stressed the steadfastness of the popular position in Saada in supporting the Palestinian people and their resistance, and solidarity with the resistance forces in the region.

It viewed the war crimes faced by Palestinians as reflecting “the nature of the Zionist project based on killing, displacement, and destruction, with direct American and Western support''.

This position comes at a time when the region is witnessing escalating tensions, coinciding with the convening of nuclear talks between Iran and the United States in the Omani capital Muscat, amid threats to target Iran.
