Al-qabaitah: Residents of the al-Qabaitah district in the Lahj governorate organized three significant marches on Tuesday to express their strong opposition to comments made by former U.S. President Donald Trump regarding Mecca. These marches were also a demonstration of unwavering support for Islamic holy sites and solidarity with the Palestinian cause, as well as the people of Palestine and Lebanon.
According to Yemen News Agency, the participants in the marches vocally denounced the actions of the Zionist enemy and criticized the ongoing American backing of aggressions against Gaza and Lebanon. The demonstrators highlighted that any affront to Islamic sacred sites, notably the Holy Quran and the Kaaba, is an insult to the entire Muslim community and will be met with a widespread and intensifying popular response.
During the events, the participants pledged their commitment to defending Islamic sanctities and supporting the Palestinian and Lebanese peoples in their resistance efforts. They also expressed their frustration with the lack of international response to the violence imposed on civilians in Gaza and Lebanon. Participants articulated their continuous support for the Palestinian cause, which they regard as the central issue for the Islamic nation, asserting that efforts to diminish the resolve of free peoples or to compromise their sacred sites are destined to fail.
The mass gatherings in liberated areas were perceived as a potent signal that the Yemeni people are actively engaged in the struggle for awareness and principles, maintaining their commitment to the Holy Quran and Mecca despite various challenges. The marches underscored the belief that the persistent violence against Gaza and Lebanon, supported by Western powers, exposes the hostile intentions towards the Muslim nation and its sacred sites, demanding a unified response from Islamic and Arab communities.
In conclusion, the participants reiterated their readiness to extend all forms of support to the Palestinian and Lebanese peoples. They also praised the courageous actions of resistance groups from Palestine, Lebanon, and Iran in defending their lands and holy places against occupation.
