thousands of Yemenis armed with Kalashnikovs chant “death to Israel”

Thousands of demonstrators chanted their hatred of Israel and the West. The day after two new missile and drone attacks, supporters of the Houthi rebels gathered in Sanaa, the capital of Yemen, in support of Gaza and the Palestinians. Slogans demanding “death of Israel”of the United States and its allies were chanted by this crowd of men, of all ages, armed with Kalashnikovs.

Motivated by loudspeakers relaying political-religious speeches, many of them shouted: “Victory for Islam, at your service al-Aqsa”. Direct reference to the code name of the terrorist attacks of October 7, 2023.

Between two cries filled with hatred and resentment against the West, the thousands of demonstrators were able to listen to the speech of military spokesperson Yahya Saree. The rebel saluted “success” of the operation carried out by its army on Thursday January 2 against Israel, during a missile and drone attack. Which, according to the Hebrew State, were intercepted.
