Tens of thousands of Yemeni people have once again staged a protest in condemnation of the ongoing Saudi aggression and blockade of their impoverished nation.
The demonstrators staged a rally in the capital of Sana’a on Friday, carrying Yemeni flags and banners condemning the Saudi aggression and the blockade imposed by Riyadh on their country, Yemen's Arabic-language al-Masirah news website reported.
They also vowed to remain steadfast in the face of the aggression and not to surrender to the blockade.
The protesters also denounced the US for backing the Saudi war on Yemen, and chanted slogans against the presence of US troops in their country.
Meanwhile, Saudi warplanes conducted five airstrikes on Baqem district in the Yemeni province of Sa’ada on Friday in another violation of the truce agreed upon about two months ago. There were no immediate reports of casualties yet.
