Yemenis have staged a big rally in the capital Sana'a to express their anger at the aggressive airstrikes led by Saudi Arabi. The demonstrators say they are ready to protect their country by all means.

Yemenis from all walks of life have gathered here at Liberation Square to send a strong message to the world that their patience is wearing thin. They say that they would not tolerate Saudi-led aggression and violation of their country’s sovereignty anymore.
Yemenis with different beliefs and religions including Sunnis and Shias have gathered here to say that this Saudi-led aggression have further united Yemenis despite plots aimed at dividing them.

This come as army forces have recaptured last stronghold of former fugitive President Hadi's palace in Aden. Observers say that after army's securing the internal front, Saudi Arabia's territories would be at the target of the Yemeni army.

People in Yemen believe that Saudi Arabia cannot see an independent Yemen. A Yemen that stands by its rights and does not allow any other power to meddle in its internal affairs. Yemenis say the Saudi kingdom wants a puppet government in Yemen which serves to their benefits.
