Manhattan stressts in New York witness a protest rally against Saudi-led aggression, blockade (+Photos)
On Friday, a mass rally was held in New York City, marking the 2,000th anniversary of Saudi-led aggression and blockade imposed on Yemen.
The protesters, led by members of the Yemeni community, Muslim communities in the US, and a large number of American anti-war activists, took to the streets of Manhattan, New York.
They marched to the office of Senator Schumer, raising pictures of the victims of the aggression and the blockade.
They also chanted slogans against aggression, including: “Stop your aggression against Yemen”, “lift the siege of Sanaa International Airport”, “launch the detaining oil derivatives”, “Let the Yemenis decide their political future”, and “no guardianship and occupation”.
They also called for an end of the blockade on Yemen and the lifting of the embargo on Sanaa International Airport.
The Yemeni community, with all its political and intellectual components in New York, called on activists and community members to participate in this march condemning the war crimes committed by the Coalition of Aggression, demanding an end to the aggression, lifting the blockade by land, sea, and air, lifting the siege of Sana’a International Airport and prosecuting the leaders of the states of aggression as war criminals.
