Yemenis stand in solidarity with Palestinians after Israeli strikes on Houthi targets

Yemen Israel Gaza the Gaza Strip

Earlier today (27 December) hundreds of thousands took to the streets in Yemen’s northwestern city of Sa’ada to demonstrate support for Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

Protesters can be seen waving Yemeni, Palestinian and Lebanese flags, along with the portraits of leaders who have been killed in the fighting.

The protest comes shortly after Israel struck Houthi targets on Thursday (26 December), including Yemen’s main international airport.

The Houthi, who are supported by Iran, have drawn the ire of Israel after recently intensifying their attacks, which began after Israel invaded Gaza.
