Sana’a Resumes Weekly Rallies, Vows: We Will Never Abandon Gaza
Sana’a Resumes Weekly Million-Man Marches: Massive Rally Held Under the Slogan "Jihad, Steadfastness, and Bravery – We Will Not Abandon Gaza”
Yemen - The capital Sana’a witnessed a massive human flood this Friday afternoon as millions gathered in Al-Sabeen Square under the slogan "Jihad, Steadfastness, and Bravery – We Will Not Abandon Gaza," reaffirming Yemen’s unwavering position in support of the Palestinian people.
This million-strong march and weekly public activity come in response to the call of Sayyed Abdulmalik Badr al-Din al-Houthi, in support of the just cause of Palestine and the oppression of its people. He emphasized that the Yemeni people will resume and continue their presence in very large numbers, affirming that mass mobilization at this stage, in the face of American escalation in support of the Zionist enemy, holds immense significance.
Al-Sabeen Square, the largest in the capital, was filled to capacity with massive crowds waving Palestinian flags, banners of freedom, and placards condemning the Zionist genocide against the people of Gaza, as well as the American aggression against Yemen, while affirming Yemen’s steadfastness and readiness to confront aggression.
Protesters' Slogans
Chants filled the air, including:
"God is sufficient for us and the best disposer of affairs"
"We face the enemies of God to seek His pleasure"
"Our righteous stance is our pride, and we will strike those who target us"
"Our faith-based stance is effective, and the Americans are absolute failures"
"No matter how fast traitors move, they will not escape Israel"
"America is the Great Satan, a constant evil that never changes"
"To Trump, the criminal and infidel, your project and bet are doomed"
"Who else is the cancer of the earth but the Zionists and Americans?"
"Jihad, jihad, the entire people are ready"
"O Gaza, we are with you, you are not alone"
"O Gaza, O Palestine, we are with you until the Day of Judgment"
"We entrust you, our leader!"
"We support you, we are the weapon in your right hand"
Crowds also echoed a unified message:
"You are not alone", in numerous ways:
“O Gaza, by God, we are with you — you are not alone”
“The Ansar are by your side — you are not alone”
“We will share even our blood with you — you are not alone”
“We feel your pain — you are not alone”
“We will bomb or be bombed with you — you are not alone”
“We will always support you — you are not alone”
“We will fight those who fight you — you are not alone”
“We will besiege those who besiege you — you are not alone”
“Our front is your front — you are not alone”
“Yemen of honor pledges to you — you are not alone”
“Even if we perish, we will not abandon you — you are not alone”
Nationwide Rallies in 14 Provinces
Simultaneously, mass rallies were held in hundreds of squares across cities, districts, and regions in 14 provinces this Friday, in solidarity with the Palestinian people under the same slogan: "Jihad, Steadfastness, and Bravery – We Will Not Abandon Gaza."
Statement from the “Jihad, Steadfastness, and Bravery” Marches
In the official statement issued during the rallies, the Yemeni people declared they will not abandon Gaza or leave its people alone, affirming their unwavering stance on the path of truth and their readiness to engage in jihad for the sake of God without retreat or hesitation.
The statement addressed the Palestinian people, saying:
“We tell you once again: You are not alone, and you will never be alone. God is with you, and we are with you.”
It emphasized that the American aggression against Yemen aims to prevent the Yemeni people from standing with Gaza, but this aggression will only strengthen Yemen’s resolve. Just as years of relentless bombardment failed to change Sana’a’s position, nothing will deter Yemen now — even with greater escalation.
To the enemies — Americans and Zionists — the statement sent a clear message:
“Your aggression is a failure, whether in Gaza or against Yemen. In Gaza, you have not managed to retrieve a single prisoner or eliminate the resistance. In Yemen, you failed to pass even one ship or stop our operations.”
The statement called for mobilizing all capabilities — public and official — in support of the Palestinian people and to defend Yemen against American aggression. It also urged general mobilization, military training, financial contributions in the path of God, economic boycott campaigns, and media confrontation.
It further demanded that security and judicial bodies act firmly against anyone who serves Zionist or American interests against Gaza and Yemen, calling on everyone without exception to take action and support Gaza in all possible fields to thwart enemy objectives.
70 Million-March Rallies Since “Al-Aqsa Flood” Operation
This Friday’s mass rally under the slogan "Jihad, Steadfastness, and Bravery – We Will Not Abandon Gaza" marks the 70th million-person protest since the launch of the "Al-Aqsa Flood" operation on October 7, 2023, up to January 17, 2025, coinciding with the beginning of the ceasefire agreement’s implementation.
The Yemeni people have persistently and increasingly mobilized in mass rallies, demonstrating loyalty, steadfastness, solidarity, and support for the Palestinian people, who are enduring a Zionist genocide under deafening international silence.
Amid the continuation of Zionist violations and the re-imposition of the blockade and aggression, the Yemeni people held three major million-strong rallies on February 14, March 17, and March 28, 2025. Weekly rallies have now resumed starting Friday, April 11, with the aggression on Gaza still ongoing. (PW)
