Yemeni People Hold Mass Rally, Slam Saudi Invasion of Yemen

International

Yemeni people took to the streets of Sana’a once again in protest to the Saudi-led offensive against the Muslim country, and urged Riyadh to put an end to the invasion of their country.

The protesters took swipe at other Arab countries for their complicity in the Saudi war crimes against Yemeni people and chanted anti-Saudi slogans.

The protesters carried banners reading “Stop the war on Yemen.” Some held posters showing children who have fallen victim to the Saudi bombardments.

Saudi Arabia has been striking Yemen for five days now, killing, at least, 70 civilians and injuring hundreds more.

Five Persian Gulf States — Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain, Qatar and Kuwait — and Egypt that are also assisted by Israel and backed by the US have declared war on Yemen in a joint statement issued earlier Thursday.

US President Barack Obama authorized the provision of logistical and intelligence support to the military operations, National Security Council Spokesperson Bernadette Meehan said late Wednesday night.

She added that while US forces were not taking direct military action in Yemen, Washington was establishing a Joint Planning Cell with Saudi Arabia to coordinate US military and intelligence support.

Riyadh claimed that it has bombed the positions of the Ansarullah fighters and launched attacks against the Sana’a airport and the Dulaimi airbase.

Despite Riyadh’s claims that it is attacking Ansarullah positions, Saudi warplanes have flattened a number of homes near Sana’a international airport.
