Provinces in Yemen, including Saada, Marib, and Raymah, are witnessing massive demonstrations in support of the Palestinian people for the 35th consecutive Friday, under the banner "Steadfast with Gaza, resisting all conspiracies."

Protests continue in Yemen in support of the Palestinian people and in homage to Gaza's resilience, despite the US-UK aggression against the nation, with the latest targeting the al-Salif district in the northwest of the coastal city of Hodeidah on the Red Sea, western Yemen.

Sanaa is expected to witness a million-man march today to reaffirm the consistency of the Yemeni position, which supports the people of Palestine and its brave Resistance.

This comes as the leader of the Yemeni Ansar Allah movement, Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, called for popular escalation, while the Yemeni Armed Forces simultaneously stepped up their operations against the Israeli occupation.

Yemen attacked 145 ships in support of Gaza

In a speech yesterday, Sayyed al-Houthi discussed the latest developments on the Yemeni front, revealing that support operations under the "Promised Victory and Holy Jihad" battle have conducted 11 operations this week alone. These involved 31 ballistic and cruise missiles, drones, and a warship.

He noted that the number of targeted ships has now reached 145, all connected to the Israeli occupation, the United States, and Britain. He explained that this escalation is part of the fourth phase and is progressing into more significant stages.

In light of these Yemeni operations, he confirmed that the United States is attempting to pressure Yemen due to its popular and official stance, which includes exerting pressure on the humanitarian front.

He added that Yemen's position has resulted in the American inability to safeguard Israeli movements at sea.
