SANAA, Feb. 26 (YPA) – Massive rallies have been held all over Yemen, condemning the aggression and blockade imposed by the US-backed Saudi-led aggression against the country .

On Friday, hundreds of thousands of from all over Yemen flocked to Bab al-Yamen square in the Yemeni capital of Sana’a, in which they took part in the protest titled “Siege of US Aggression Coalition Kills Yemeni people”.

Participants in the protests raised banners condemning the silence of the world in the face of war crimes committed against the Yemeni people.

They also called on the world to go out in in solidarity stand and protests  to demand an end to the aggression, the lifting of the blockade and the release of detained oil derivatives ships.

They deplored the shameful international positions towards the war crimes against the Yemeni people.

Protesters held the United Nations and the UN Security Council responsible for the crimes and violations committed by the United States and Saudi Arabia for the past six years in Yemen.

They stressed that the violations of aggression and arbitrary practices by tightening the blockade and the continued detention of fuel vessels will only increase the determination of the Yemeni people in confronting the aggression forces.

During the protest in the capital Sanaa, Mohammed Ali al-Houthi, a member of the Supreme Political Council, confirmed that the Yemeni people stand today in various arenas to confirm their loyalty to their country and their cause and the blood of their martyrs.

“We are going on to defend our country and our dignity, and those who attack our country are foreign forces, and local mercenaries represent nothing for our people,” he said.

Mohammed Ali al-Houthi confirmed that the honorable sons of Marib are sincere in their orientation and association with the capital of the Republic of Yemen Sana’a.

“Saudi Arabia should defend itself at its borders, not in Marib, and Emiratis should go to their islands, which they claim are occupied by Iran, and face them there if they are men, “ he said.

“If Biden wants peace, he must withdraw his experts who are leading the battle in Marib, and the British must stop arming aircraft targeting our children in Marib and on various fronts.”

He pointed out that Marib was never a quiet front, and the Security Council has been silent since the beginning of the aggression and now the council wakes up today to call for an end to the fighting?

He explained that the population statistics that the international community is talking about in Marib are incorrect, and these are propaganda to collect aid.

Al-Houthi condemned the continued criminality of the enemy’s being against the Palestinians.

He also blamed the countries of aggression for the famine that Mark Lowcock is talking about, and he is also responsible for the blockade and the oil derivatives crisis.
