Sana'a: The capital Sana'a and multiple governorates witnessed million-strong weekly marches under the slogan 'With Gaza - we will not accept the shame of abandonment whatever the crimes of the aggressor,' reaffirming Yemen's steadfast jihadist position alongside Gaza and Palestine as the correct faith-based stance that all members of the Ummah should adopt.
According to Yemen News Agency, the report describes the display as sincere and rooted in the Yemeni people's religious and moral values. The millions gathered pledged they will remain loyal to the Palestinian brothers and their just cause, regardless of the challenges and sacrifices required. The vast turnout in Saba'een Square and across the governorates was presented as an explicit popular endorsement of the path of jihad and resistance in defense of the nation's causes and sacred sites and in support of the oppressed, and as provocation to the enemies and their collaborators counted among the Arab world's traitors.
The crowds stated that standing with Palestine is imperative in a time of betrayal and regression by many who claim the Islamic faith. They pointed to the horrific scenes of killing and destruction against hundreds of thousands of children and women in Gaza as evidence of the brutality of the aggression and the steadfastness of the free resistance. Participants warned that opposing the Zionist-American project at this stage is an existential stance with consequences for the present and future of all the Ummah.
The demonstrators expressed pride in the wise leadership guiding the Ansar people toward dignity and independence. They emphasized that Yemen will not accept defeat, injustice, or submission. Popular chants at the marches included religious and mobilizing slogans and invectives against the United States, Saudi leadership, and those who 'cooperate with Israel,' while reiterating refusal to accept any normalization or protection of Israeli navigation.
Sana'a saw a major mass march reaffirming resistance to the Zionist enemy and support for the Palestinian people. Marchers renewed their endorsement and mandate for the Leader of the Revolution, Sayyid Abdul-Malik Badr al-Din al-Houthi, and confirmed the Yemeni people's readiness for all options against the Zionist enemy, its instruments, and its agents. They blessed the armed forces' precision operations against Israel, which the report says have penetrated and overcome Israeli defense systems. The crowds called for continued general mobilization and readiness to confront the enemies of the Ummah and their collaborators.
The gatherings denounced the escalation of Israeli massacres, starvation, and destruction in Gaza as conducted in partnership with the United States and supported by Western complicity. They cited the U.S. veto to block a resolution to halt the war and allow aid as proof that the aggression is a U.S.-Zionist project. The crowds warned the Saudi regime against involvement in protecting Israeli shipping alongside Britain and the U.S., vowing such attempts will fail as previous ones did and will not protect their vessels.
The demonstrations expressed disappointment at the outcomes of the Arab-Islamic summit in Doha, calling them inadequate. They said the summit's weak condemnations only encouraged Israeli escalation and its attempt to establish a 'Greater Israel.'
Across the country, the report lists large mobilizations in other governorates. In Saada, there were 40 mass marches condemning Doha's ineffective outcomes. Al-Hudaydah saw 268 squares filled with mass rallies supporting Gaza. In the Sana'a governorate, 300 marches and gatherings took place, with participants carrying Yemeni and Palestinian flags.

They highlighted three principal positions: confronting the Zionist enemy is the most correct and wise option; they praised Palestinian resistance and Yemen's armed forces' operations; and they warned the Saudi regime, the United States, and Britain against involvement in protecting Israeli shipping. The statement concluded with prayers for swift victory for the oppressed Palestinian people.
