On Friday morning, millions of Yemenis flooded more than a hundred squares across the governorates of Saada, Marib, Rayma, and others, in support of the Palestinian people in Gaza, their Resistance, and the Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF).
The al-Aqsa Support Committee designated 180 locations in Hajjah for the million-strong marches under the slogan "Steadfast with Gaza... with our religious identity and our Quranic journey," 122 of which are located in Hodeidah, and 56 others in Amran, northern Yemen.
The committee additionally designated 47 locations in Raymah, 30 locations in Taiz, 29 locations in Dhamar, 33 locations in Saada, 112 locations in Ibb, and 31 locations in Mahwit. More than 680 marches and demonstrations are expected to take place across cities and districts in 14 Yemeni governorates in support of Gaza.
This statement follows a reaffirmation by a senior Yemeni military source to Al Mayadeen, asserting that Yemen will continue to support Gaza unconditionally, while also highlighting Yemen's advanced military capabilities in defending against any aggression or hostility.
The source then emphasized that the Yemeni army is preparing "surprises", demanding the end of the aggression on Gaza given that Yemen's support for the territory will not cease.
Moreover, given the aggression on both Gaza and Yemen, the Yemeni army has decided to establish a new military equation: Power grid for power grid and airport for airport. However, the solution to that would be the end of the aggression on the Gaza Strip, the source said.
