Thousands of angry Yemenis hold rally in support of Gaza people

SANA'A, Jan. (Saba)- Thousands of angry Yemenis held here on Friday a rally to protest against the Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.

More than 200000 protesters took to streets in the capital Sana'a after performing
Friday prayers to show their support for the people of the Gaza Strip and denounce
the nearly two-week Israeli military offensive on Gaza.
During the rally, they called on the UN Security Council and international and
humanitarian organizations in the world to take practical steps and courageous
decisions to stop the Israeli genocide war against the Palestinians in Gaza and
force Israel to withdraw its military forces from Gaza and all the Israeli-occupied
territories.
The angry Yemeni protesters also called for protecting the Palestinian people and
enable and support them to reconstruct their destroyed houses, schools, mosques and
services institutions due to Israel's continuous attacks on Gaza as well as creating
an independent Palestinian state with al-Quds as its capital.
In a statement of the participants in the rally, they urged the UN to stop the
Israeli attacks on Gaza and redouble efforts to achieve peace in the region,
denouncing the Zionist aggression on Gaza and adding that these criminal acts
demonstrate that the Israel is a hateful and terrorist Zionist entity.
"A malignant cancer in the body of humanity will be extirpated from the humanitarian
world only when the International community secures a strict protection of
international peace and security," the statement explained.
"We call for the need to put an end to this barbaric aggression so that the World
can live in peace and security, affirming that the scenes of the bodies of women,
children and elderly in Gaza are a living testimony to the culture of the Israeli
hatred and terrorism".
