Yemenis, Bahrainis come out in force in support of war-hit Palestinians in Gaza
Yemenis have rallied across the country, voicing support for Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, who are enduring a genocidal Israeli war, and endorsing the regional resistance factions’ pro-Palestinian operations.
The rallies were held in the capital Sana’a, the northwestern city of Sa’ada, and several other locations throughout the Arab Peninsula nation on Friday under the slogan, “[Standing] steadfastly alongside Gaza, we confront whatever plot.”
The participants condemned the brutal Israeli military onslaught that has claimed the lives of at least 37,232 Palestinians, mostly women and children, since its onset on October 7.
They reasserted their approval of the pro-Palestinian military operations that the Yemeni Armed Forces have been staging against the occupied territories and Israeli-linked vessels.
“We salute the epic steadfastness of the Palestinian nation, and the [Palestinian] fighters’ qualitative [anti-Israeli] operations in the Gaza Strip,” the demonstrators, meanwhile, said in a statement.
The participants hailed the standing level of unity among the resistance factions in the coastal sliver as opposed to the differences and resignations that had plagued the Israeli regime’s political ranks, “which bespeaks the defeat of the regime.”
“We tell the Israeli enemy that ‘you are on the verge of destruction,’” the statement read.
The protesters condemned the attacks that the United States and the UK have been staging against their country with the aim of stopping its pro-Palestinian operations.
Elsewhere across the region, Bahrain's opposition group al-Wefaq Society reported in a post on X, former Twitter, that Bahrainis had come out in protest after Friday prayers in the northwestern village of Diraz in solidarity with Gaza.
