Massive Demonstrations in Capital & Provinces in Support of Palestine & Escalating Operations Against Enemy
Sana'a – SABA: With renewed enthusiasm and stronger resolve, the Yemeni people took to the streets today in massive demonstrations across the capital, Sana'a, and various provinces, in support of the escalating and strategic operations of the Yemeni Armed Forces in the battle against the Zionist enemy and in solidarity with the Palestinian people. These demonstrations, held under the slogan 'In Support of Gaza… Our Marches Continue, Our Operations Escalate,' expressed pride in the heroic operations through which the Yemeni Armed Forces have struck fear into the enemy by disrupting its maritime supply routes. Through their large turnout, the Yemeni people affirmed that they remain a steadfast and resolute nation, with a living conscience and unwavering faith, refusing to compromise on their principles and the just causes of the Muslim nation—at a time when many Arab and Islamic countries have descended into subservience to the enemies of the Ummah. Yemenis also expressed a high level of awareness of the dangers threatening the peoples of the region and reaffirmed their practical and responsive stance—led by their leadership, people, and military—in thwarting enemy schemes despite enduring ten years of aggression and blockade. In the capital Sana'a, a massive demonstration was held in Al-Sabeen Square, where crowds voiced their pride in the heroic operations of the Yemeni Armed Forces against the criminal Zionist entity—most recently, the sinking of two ships belonging to companies that violated the Yemeni-imposed ban on entering occupied Palestinian ports. Participants reaffirmed continued mobilization and readiness to confront any escalation by the Zionist enemy and its allies, maintaining their unwavering commitment to the jihadist stance in support of the Palestinian people, regardless of the sacrifices involved. The crowds emphasized that this principled stance will not waver until the aggression against Gaza stops and the siege is lifted, denouncing the continued Arab and Islamic failure to respond to the ongoing genocide, starvation, and siege faced by the Palestinian people for the past 21 months. In Sana'a province, demonstrations and protests were held in the western districts in solidarity with Palestine and in condemnation of the U.S. stance that supports the ongoing atrocities committed against Palestinians in Gaza—amid international silence and Arab-Islamic abandonment. They confirmed their continued weekly protests to support Gaza out of religious, moral, and humanitarian responsibility and welcomed the military operations targeting the Zionist entity and the Red Sea blockade. In Al-Hodeidah, the people rallied in 248 locations across the province and its districts, reaffirming their steadfast support for the Palestinian people and denouncing the ongoing Israeli aggression against Gaza. Participants condemned the continued international complicity and the deliberate disregard for the occupation's massacres, viewing this silence as complicity in Palestinian genocide and a moral collapse for international organizations. They stressed that the Yemeni people, under their wise leadership and Quranic project, remain unwavering in their support for Gaza and will not be deterred by conspiracies or threats. Supporting Palestine is a religious and humanitarian obligation that admits no compromise. In Saada, 38 major demonstrations were held in the provincial capital and districts to celebrate the Yemeni Armed Forces' operations in the Red Sea in support of Palestine. Saada's people announced their full mandate to Leader Abdul-Malik Badr al-Din al-Houthi to take all necessary measures to inflict pain on the Zionist enemy and its backers. They affirmed that their mass rallies and military support for Gaza will continue until the Zionist crimes cease and the blockade on Gaza is lifted. In Ibb province, 206 demonstrations were held to condemn the Zionist crimes against the Palestinian people, exposing the brutality of the occupation and its violation of international laws. The people of Ibb expressed their support for the Palestinian resistance as a legitimate right to defend land and dignity, emphasizing Yemen's unshakable position: that supporting Palestine is a religious and moral duty. Protests also denounced international silence over the starvation policies and massacres in Gaza, calling for urgent action across all levels to confront Israeli aggression stripped of all humanity. They confirmed Yemen's ongoing commitment to fight the Zionist entity until the aggression stops and the siege ends. In Taiz province, 67 demonstrations were held affirming Yemen's steadfast stance with Gaza and support for intensified operations against the Zionist regime.

They renewed their unconditional mandate to Leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi to take all necessary actions in support of the Palestinian cause until the Zionist regime falls. In Al-Bayda, large demonstrations were held in the provincial capital and districts in support of Palestine and against U.S.-Israeli aggression. Participants stated that this mass mobilization is an act of obedience to God, a form of jihad, and a means of seeking His pleasure—standing with the oppressed Palestinian people against Zionist-American tyranny. They praised the bravery of Palestinian resistance fighters despite the hardship and suffering caused by 21 months of Israeli aggression, siege, and starvation in Gaza. In Al-Dhalea province, demonstrations continued in Damt, Al-Hasha, Qa'atabah, and Jabin districts in support of Gaza and as part of preparations to confront any Israeli aggression. Protesters condemned the silence of Arab and Islamic governments regarding the brutal massacres in Gaza, asserting that the Yemeni people, with their wise leadership and Quranic project, will not abandon Gaza or all of Palestine. They supported the Yemeni Armed Forces' operations against Israel in occupied Palestine and the Red Sea, expressing pride in these heroic stances and the steadfastness of Gaza's fighters. In Al-Mahweet, mass demonstrations and protests were held to express solidarity with Palestine and readiness to confront U.S.-Israeli aggression. Participants raised Yemeni and Palestinian flags and chanted slogans in solidarity with Gaza against Israeli barbarism.

In Hajjah, 268 protest sites were activated in support of Palestine, with participants chanting defiance against aggression and pledging to continue supporting Gaza out of obedience to God and resistance to Zionist oppression. Hajjah residents warned against aligning with enemies, as such loyalty leads only to ruin. They expressed full readiness to make more sacrifices regardless of the challenges. They praised God for aiding Palestinian and Yemeni fighters who continue to inflict heavy losses on the Zionist enemy in defense of land, dignity, and sovereignty.

They saluted the Palestinian resistance for its continued victories and heavy blows against the Israeli army, which they said would ultimately lead to triumph over the occupying regime. Likewise, in Ma'rib province, 17 large demonstrations reaffirmed the commitment to jihad, sacrifice, and support for the Palestinian cause. Participants condemned Arab and Islamic complicity and international silence in the face of genocide, starvation, and oppression in Gaza by the Zionist regime. Statement Issued by the Demonstrations: In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful All praise is due to Allah, Lord of the Worlds. Peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his pure family, and his chosen companions. 'Do not weaken in pursuit of the enemy. If you suffer, they suffer as you suffer, but you hope from Allah what they do not hope. And Allah is Knowing and Wise.' — The Holy Qur'an In obedience to Allah, jihad in His cause, and seeking His pleasure, we took to the streets in our millions today to support the oppressed Muslim people of Palestine and to confront the Zionist-American tyranny committing genocide in Gaza for 21 months. First: We praise Allah for aiding the Palestinian resistance and our Armed Forces. We welcome the escalation of their operations in the heart of the Zionist enemy and the effective maritime operations that have shattered Israeli hopes of breaking the Yemeni naval blockade—while the enemy massacres and starves Gaza. Second: As we witness the Palestinian fighters' powerful strikes in recent days—lethal ambushes and relentless resistance—we grow more confident that defeating the enemy is possible despite limited resources and immense suffering. The enemy, as Allah described, is weak and cowardly despite its brutality. Victory is only from Allah. Third and finally: We affirm to our wise leadership, our Armed Forces, and the resistance in Gaza that we, the Yemeni people, will not retreat or falter. We will not abandon our stance, no matter the pain or sacrifices. We are patient in the path of God, knowing this is the only road to liberation and relief. All other paths lead to disgrace and loss in this world and the hereafter. 'And We will surely test you with something of fear and hunger and a loss of wealth and lives and fruits, but give good tidings to the patient.' — The Holy Qur'an We ask Allah to hasten the victory and relief for the oppressed Muslim people of Palestine, to aid our fighters, to have mercy on the martyrs, heal the wounded, and free the prisoners. Indeed, He is the All-Hearing, the Responsive. E. Whatsapp Telegram Email Print more of (Reports)

Ministry of Justice & Human Rights: Qualitative Achievements Despite Aggression & Blockade
Sana'a - Saba: When the US, Saudi, and Emirati aggression against Yemen began more than ten years ago, specifically on March 26, 2015, the aggressor forces were betting that Yemen would collapse under the bombardment, blockade, and starvation, However, the Yemenis were not a piece of paper in the offices of international politicians, nor merely numbers in intelligence reports, Rather, they were a people who decided to make the aggression a turning point, not a point of collapse. Despite the massacres and crimes committed by the aggression over the past ten years, which are shocking to humanity, and the devastation that has affected the infrastructure in every sector, this has not prevented the steadfast Yemeni people from shaking off the dust of destruction to continue their path of liberation and progress. The Ministry of Justice and Human Rights, and the judiciary in general, were not immune to the aggression's targeting, which sought to spread chaos and deny justice to Yemenis. However, the efforts of those working in the judiciary, including the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights, and under the leadership of the leader of the revolution, Sayyed Abdulmalik Badr al-Din al-Houthi, and Mahdi al-Mashat, President of the Supreme Political Council, were able to transform the aggression's efforts from destruction to construction, and numerous achievements for the Yemeni judiciary are attested to by reality and the citizenry alike. Despite the enormous challenges and exceptional circumstances resulting from the aggression on Yemen, the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights and its affiliated agencies achieved significant accomplishments (between 2015 and 2025), these accomplishments reflected the determination of the ministry's leaders and employees and their sense of responsibility in confronting the aggression, continuing judicial work, and ensuring access to justice for all citizens.

The Ministry of Justice and Human Rights has printed millions of records, notebooks, books, files, papers, and other judicial publications, at a total cost of 632 million and 410 thousand riyals. Given the numerous achievements of the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights, and the targeting it has been subjected to by the aggression over the past ten years, the Ministry has demonstrated the resolve and determination of Yemenis to overcome any obstacles and challenges, and even to use the aggression as a stepping stone to a better future. What the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights has accomplished over the past ten years is a message to the world: those who bet on the fall of Yemen have lost their bet, those who thought Yemen would be defeated have misunderstood history, this land has never fallen, and it will never fall as long as it contains men who know nothing but victory.

General Federation of Yemeni Trade Unions Praises Steps Taken by Trade Unions in Greece, UK
Sana'a - Saba: The General Federation of Yemeni Trade Unions expressed its gratitude for the steps taken by trade unions in Greece and the United Kingdom in rejecting the facilitation of the passage of military shipments bound for the Zionist entity and in imposing a complete ban on arms exports to Israel. In a statement received by the Yemeni News Agency (SABA), the federation praised the labor union at the Port Authority of Piraeus in Greece, which issued a joint statement rejecting the facilitation of military shipments to the Zionist entity and announced plans to hold protest sit-ins. It also commended the actions of 'Unite the Union,' the largest trade union in the UK's private sector, which overwhelmingly voted in favor of a complete ban on arms exports to Israel. The union supported the right of workers to refuse to manufacture, transport, or handle any military equipment used in genocide and Israeli assaults against the Palestinian people, affirming its commitment to boycott Israeli products and support divestment from companies complicit in crimes against Palestinians. The statement clarified that these workers were moved by the heinous crimes committed by the Zionist entity against children and women, which stirred their human conscience, prompting them to take a clear stance. It added that the ongoing genocide and starvation of the Palestinian people require a noble position worthy of being recorded in history's brightest pages. The General Federation of Yemeni Trade Unions extended its thanks and appreciation to those who took these steps, calling on all port workers around the world—especially those in Arab and Islamic countries, who bear greater responsibility than others—to follow the same path as the unions in Greece and the UK. It also called on all Arab and Islamic federations and labor unions worldwide to engage with this humanitarian cause and translate it into practical action among the workers of their countries' ports.
