Scenes from Yemen's million-man march in solidarity with Palestine, December 6, 2024 (Yemeni Military Media)

Million-man marches swept Yemen across over 500 central and regional gathering points across 14 governorates, massively in Sanaa's al-Sabeen Square, in a consistent show of solidarity with the Palestinian people and their Resistance, organized under the banner of "Unwavering, Relentless, and Resolute Solidarity with Gaza."

A statement issued by the million-man march organizers confirmed, first and foremost, "Yemen's utmost animosity towards the Zionists," as well as its condemnations of their crimes in Gaza, the desecration of Gaza's sacred assets, and the burning of the Holy Quran.

The statement further assured that the Yemeni people would not allow the United States or "Israel" to determine which nations are hostile, and which are not.

Addressing US President-elect Donald Trump and responding to his latest threat to the Palestinian Resistance, the statement said, "We [Yemenis] and all of our Ummah's Mujahideen are not afraid of America's threats or its hell and are not content with its approval or paradise."

The recent joint operations carried out by the Yemeni Armed Forces and the Iraqi Islamic Resistance, which targeted deep into the occupied territories, were praised, with the statement further calling on the Arab and Islamic nations to "be wary of America’s machinations aimed at dismantling the Ummah and plunging Muslims into conflicts and secondary problems," and to carry out "its religious responsibility and duties." morality and humanity toward what is happening in Gaza."

The statement denounced "the shameful positions of some Arab and Islamic regimes, which have made themselves a crossing bridge and a supply for the enemy at a time when the people of Gaza are starving."

This comes after the leader of the Yemeni Ansar Allah movement, Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, highlighted that the United States and the Israeli occupation "are attempting to completely divert attention from the Palestinian issue, aiming to liquidate it in an environment of complete distraction, while simultaneously opening fronts against anyone who stands in solidarity with it."
