Women's Authority in Hajjah organizes solidarity vigils with Palestinian people in Gaza
Hajjah – Saba: The Women's Authority in Hajjah governorate organized on Friday several solidarity vigils with the Palestinian people under the slogan: "Steadfast with Gaza... Our Readiness Is High to Face All Enemy Conspiracies." Participants in the vigils held in various areas raised both Palestinian and Yemeni flags, along with banners expressing disavowal of the enemies of Islam, traitors, and collaborators. The participants condemned the horrific crimes committed by the Zionist enemy against children and women in Gaza, including its policy of starvation and thirst aimed at exterminating the people of the Strip and using humanitarian aid as a trap for killing. They also denounced the ongoing efforts of the usurping Zionist entity to Judaize Jerusalem through the expansion of settlement outposts and demolition of Palestinian homes. The vigils strongly condemned the disgraceful stances of Arab and Islamic regimes regarding the brutal crimes committed by the Zionists in Gaza and the West Bank, and the aggression against Lebanon, in full view of the world. A statement issued by the vigils affirmed continued broad-based activity as part of a principled stance of jihad for the sake of Allah, fulfillment of responsibility, and steadfastness in a comprehensive, clear, firm, and escalating position in support of the Palestinian people. The statement called on all Muslims to support the courageous resistance in Gaza with weapons and everything that would strengthen their steadfastness, considering it the sound and wise option. It also warned that the Zionist-American enemy's activation of its agents inside and outside the Ummah to pressure the resistance in Gaza, Palestine, and Lebanon — using local and regional tools under the guise of 'interests' — is merely part of the broader aggression against the Ummah using deceptive tactics. The statement concluded by calling on all Arab and Islamic peoples to rise up, raise their voices, protect al-Aqsa Mosque and the holy sites, and stand in solidarity with Gaza and the Palestinian people.
