Ibb: Large public rallies were held on Friday across Ibb governorate, including at the Great Prophet Square in the city center and in various districts, under the slogan 'Mobilization and Readiness. In Support of the Qur'an and Palestine.' Participants affirmed their firm stance in defending the Holy Qur'an and supporting the Palestinian cause, rejecting all forms of insult and aggression.
According to Yemen News Agency, the mass turnout reflects a religious and moral duty to defend Islamic sanctities and stand with the Palestinian people amid ongoing aggression and blockade. Speakers at the rallies stressed that any insult to the Qur'an is an attack on the entire Islamic nation, reaffirmed full solidarity with the Palestinian people and their resistance, and described Palestine as the central cause of the nation.
A statement issued by the rallies condemned repeated and systematic insults to the Qur'an, holding the United States, Britain, and Israel responsible, and called on Islamic nations to take action, reject such offenses, and boycott U.S. and Israeli enemy products. The statement also denounced the gas deal between Egypt and Israel, calling for its cancellation, and emphasized continued mobilization and readiness to confront future escalation.
