Yemenis commemorate martyrdom of Imam Zaid Bin Ali (PBUH) with mass rallies

SANAA, Aug. 23 (YPA)-Hundreds of thousands of Yemenis in the capital Sana’a and a number of provinces have on Tuesday staged mass rallies commemorating the anniversary of the martyrdom of Imam Zaid bin Ali (peace be upon him).

The participants in the march raised slogans of freedom, Yemeni and Palestinian flags, banners expressing the importance of commemorating the martyrdom of Imam Zaid, as well as banners condemning America’s crimes against Yemen and the nation and the looting of its wealth, and calling for a boycott of American and Israeli goods.

The participants chanted slogans expressing the greatness of the Imam Zaid revolution, and the importance of drawing lessons from it, emphasizing the continuation of his approach in fighting tyrants and arrogance in this era, and confronting the US-Saudi aggression against Yemen.

Affirming adherence to the Palestinian cause, Yemenis  said: “We reject acts of treason and all forms of normalization and relations with “Israel” in any form by the employment and treason regimes, and we assure that the Zionists will only see us where they hate.”

The statement addressed the United Nations by saying: We say to the United Nations that Yemeni people will not stand idly by when their enemies plunder their wealth and refuse to pay the salaries from their wealth, and our airstrikes will make them regret it.
