Massive pro-Palestine demonstrations flood Yemen streets for 39th week
Hundreds of thousands took to the streets in the Yemeni capital Sana’a and other cities for the 39th consecutive Friday of pro-Palestine demonstrations.
This week’s rallies were held with the theme of "steadfast with Gaza despite all traitors," with people carrying giant Palestinian flags while denouncing the US-Israeli genocide in Gaza.
Yemeni media estimated that over two million people attended the rallies across the Arab state.
The masses chanted slogans affirming the continuation of general mobilization and rallying to confront Israel and the British-American aggression on Yemen and to continue popular activities and million-man marches to support Gaza without fatigue.
The demonstrators celebrated the unprecedented anti-Israel operation by the Yemeni Army on Friday, which hit Tel Aviv in occupied Palestine, expressing pride and admiration for the great and historic achievement.
They chanted: "If the whole world goes to war with us, we won’t stop fulfilling our duty."
During the march, Ansarullah's Supreme Political Council member Mohammed Ali al-Houthi expressed gratitude and appreciation to the Yemeni people who have not left the demonstration since the first day of the aggression on Gaza, hailing the Yemenis' support for Palestine with their hearts, money, and men.
Al-Houthi said, "When the Arab regimes feared being struck by America, the [Yemeni] leader [Abdul-Malik al-Houthi] did not abandon his duty to support the brothers in Gaza."
He stressed that the more the Israeli regime continues its crimes and aggressions, the more the armed forces' operations will escalate and develop.
Al-Houthi called on all governments in the region to stand by the Yemeni people in supporting Gaza and the people of Palestine, as there will be no stability for Arab and Islamic peoples and their regimes except with the "removal" of the Israeli entity.
He said, "We must realize and understand that we have an enemy that continues to attack and conspire against our countries, and Yemen's supportive stance towards Palestine comes from a faith-based perspective, not for any other reason."
The Arab country has been holding rallies every Friday in solidarity with Palestine since the war broke out in Gaza on October 7.
It has also launched hundreds of anti-Israel operations in international waters to force Israel into ending the war on the Gaza Strip.
Yemen says it will continue to back Palestinians until the ongoing genocide comes to an end.
