News - Yemen: The capital Sana'a witnessed a renewed million-strong human flood in support of Gaza, reaffirming Yemen's unwavering stance on the Palestinian cause under the slogan: "Steadfast with Gaza... We Will Escalate in the Face of Genocide and Starvation."

This week's mobilization was exceptional and unprecedented, in response to the call of the Leader of the revolution, Sayyed Abdulmalik al-Houthi. The largest squares in the capital could not contain the massive crowds, which overflowed into the surrounding streets.

The protesters raised Yemeni and Palestinian flags, banners of freedom opposing American policies in the region, and signs affirming the Yemeni people’s steadfast support for the Palestinian people and condemning the Zionist aggression and massacres against the people of Gaza.

They denounced the shameful Arab silence and inaction in the face of the genocidal war and starvation campaign against the Palestinians in Gaza.

Statement of the Marches: 

The statement of the million-strong marches reaffirmed Yemen's commitment and steadfast, honorable stance in support of the Palestinian people, fully authorizing the leadership and endorsing all decisions, options, and military operations against the Zionist enemy entity.

The statement condemned the Zionist enemy’s escalation of its horrific crimes and genocidal acts against Gaza, who, alongside continuous killing and destruction, suffer from a major crime of starvation and thirst, an unprecedented tragic situation, and the annihilation of all life necessities—water, electricity, health facilities, and the most basic forms of shelter—amid shameful Arab and Islamic inaction and humiliating global indifference.

The statement declared: "In the face of the most heinous genocide crimes of modern times, which stain the face of this generation of humanity, we, as a Yemeni Muslim people, affirm that we will not accept being part of this disgrace or this dark era in human history."

It emphasized that the Yemeni Muslim people will neither accept nor retreat from their supportive stance for the Palestinian cause but will continue with absolute steadfastness, conviction, and loyalty until victory.

The statement called on "the peoples of our nation to move and break free from the disgrace of silence, to take practical action against these crimes that break hearts and souls, and to wash away the shame of silence and inaction—otherwise, the punishment of Allah in this life and the hereafter is the inevitable fate of every conspirator or coward."

It renewed "absolute support, pride, and honor in the military operations of our Armed Forces against the Zionist enemy entity, which have inflicted heavy losses, calling for even greater and more decisive actions against this criminal, oppressive, and infidel enemy—until it is deterred and forced to stop its aggression and lift the siege on Gaza, leading to the liberation of Palestine and Al-Aqsa."

The statement praised the historic resilience, immense patience by the people of Gaza in resistance, calling on the nation to draw lessons from their steadfastness, patience, and sacrifice. It added: "Gaza, in its harshest and most difficult conditions, refuses to surrender and thwarts the enemy from achieving any goal".

It is worth noting that this morning and afternoon, as every Friday, million-strong marches took place in hundreds of squares in the capital Sana'a and 14 liberated provinces in solidarity with the Palestinian people, who have been subjected to a Zionist war of genocide since October 2023.
