In a series of solidarity million-man marches held across Yemen, participants expressed their unwavering support for Palestine, Lebanon, and regional resistance movements, emphasizing their readiness to confront any US or Israeli escalation.
A statement issued during the demonstrations praised the recent military operations by Palestinian Resistance factions, describing them as effective in inflicting significant losses on the Israeli occupation forces.
The statement extended congratulations to Hezbollah for its impactful operations against the Israeli occupation, which, it said, "have thwarted the Israeli occupation's criminal plans and unjust attacks on Lebanon." It also lauded the Islamic Resistance in Iraq and praised the ongoing Resistance operations within occupied Palestine, particularly the "heroic martyrdom operations."
Moreover, the statement celebrated the recent appointment of Sheikh Naim Qassem as the new Secretary-General of Hezbollah, following the martyrdom of Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, whom they hailed as a "martyr of Islam and humanity." Yemen expressed firm support for Sheikh Qassem, pledging solidarity with Hezbollah and the Lebanese people.
In closing, the statement reiterated Yemen's steadfast commitment to supporting Palestinian Resistance factions and the Palestinian people against the Israeli occupation, emphasizing the unyielding nature of Yemen's stance.
"We remain committed to our faith-based and principled position that has resisted adversaries' attempts to deter it for over a year," the statement read.

US whitewashing Israeli crimes, justifying genocide: Sayyed al-Houthi
"Israel" is attempting to carry out the plans of its "criminal generals and bloodthirsty officers" to empty northern Gaza of its population, pointed out the leader of the Yemeni Ansar Allah movement, Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, on Thursday.
In his weekly speech, Sayyed al-Houthi said "Israel" seeks to forcibly displace the Palestinian people from the northern Gaza Strip by committing the most heinous crimes, adding that the occupation aims to end all medical services in northern Gaza by targeting hospitals and medical staff.
He also indicated that the Israeli crimes against Palestinian detainees and captives are "among the most atrocious, perhaps unparalleled in all prisons."
