Hodeidah: Massive rallies flooded 268 squares across Al Hodeida Governorate under the banner: "With Gaza. We will never accept the disgrace of betrayal, no matter the crimes of the aggression." The marches, led by local officials including the Governor and the First Deputy Governor, mobilized crowds in absolute support of the Palestinian cause and in solidarity with Gaza.
According to Yemen News Agency, the key demands and messages expressed during the rallies included the endorsement of the operations by the Yemeni Armed Forces, authorization for the Revolutionary Leadership to make decisions to counter threats, and readiness to participate with the armed forces in the "Promised Conquest and Sacred Jihad."
The rallies denounced the reception of an Israeli delegation by mercenaries, labeling it an act of betrayal and collusion with the Zionist entity. Criticism was also aimed at the outcomes of the Doha Summit, which were deemed disappointing and lacking effective decisions. Further condemnation was directed at the American veto, viewed as complicity in crimes.
The crowds affirmed that failure to support Palestine is a betrayal of religion and nation, urging Arab and Islamic peoples to pressure their governments. A final statement from the rallies justified the choice of confrontation and jihad against the "Zionist enemy" as the "most correct" path. It blessed the military operations of the Resistance and the Yemeni Armed Forces, and warned Saudi Arabia, the United States, Britain, and all those supporting the protection of Israeli navigation of the consequences of more powerful confrontations.
