Iranians to Stage Nationwide Rallies in Solidarity with Yemenis

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Massive protests are planned to be held across Iran this Friday to condemn the Saudi regime’s military attacks on Yemen, which have killed hundreds of civilians so far.

Nationwide protests against the Al Saud regime's attacks on Yemen will be held in all prayer grounds across the country following the Friday Prayers this week.

The massive rallies are scheduled to be held in the capital, Tehran, and more than 770 other cities across the country.

On March 26, Saudi Arabia and some of its Arab allies began to launch deadly air strikes against the Houthi Ansarullah movement in an attempt to restore power to the fugitive former President Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi, a close ally of Riyadh.

The Saudi-led coalition announced on April 21 that its military operation "Decisive Storm" has ended, but hours later, air strikes and ground fighting resumed.

According to the spokesman of the Yemeni Army, the Saudi-led war on the Arab country has killed more than 2,000 people, most of them civilians.
