SANA'A, Aug. 8 ) The Yemeni Journalists Syndicate and several civil society organizations (NGOs) held a gathering in Sana'a on Tuesday, lighting a large number of candles to support Lebanese and Palestinian peoples against and in protest of Israeli aggression upon them, as embodied in the atrocious war in Lebanon.
The professional unions issued a statement confirming that the Israeli attacks on Lebanon are under U.S. military and diplomatic support, in addition to British logistical support. The statement declared that the professional unions in Yemen hail the steadfastness and brave resistance of Arabs in Lebanon and Palestine and warned against supporting the U.S.-British-Zionist scheme aimed at liquidating the resistance and imposing Zionist normalization on the Arab nation.
The statement pointed out that standing by resisters in Palestine and Lebanon requires all forms of support with all available means, including donations, demonstrations and sit-ins, as well as media efforts to pressure Arab nations, the Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC) and United Nations establishments to work to change the state of inability and surrender to U.S. and Zionist hegemony.
The unions' statement demanded Arab nations expel U.S. and British ambassadors, recall Arab ambassadors to Israel and work to cancel agreements of normalization and surrender with Israel, \”whose army's arrogance has ended under the painful blows dealt by the Lebanese Hezbollah resistance
