RNA – The demonstrators carrying placards chanted slogans against the Saudi regime and its allies and condemned Riyadh’s continued massacre of the Yemeni people.
The protestors also chanted slogans against the US for supporting the Riyadh government in its aggression against Yemen.
On Thursday, Iranian students gathered in front of the UN office in Tehran to condemn the killing of Yemeni women, children and students and urge the world body’s serious reaction.
Hundreds of female and male students chanted slogans, including “Death to House of Saud,” “Death to the US” and “I am a Yemeni.”
They also carried placards and banners to voice support for the innocent Yemeni children.
The Iranian students called on the UN and other international bodies to show reaction to the cruel massacre of the defenseless Yemeni people.
Iranians have repeatedly taken to the streets to show their condemnation of the Saudi invasion of Yemen in the last 44 days, i.e. since a Saudi-led coalition of 10 countries started a massive aerial campaign against the impoverished Arab nation on March 26.
Also in mid April, Iranian protestors staged mass rallies across the country to condemn the Saudi airstrikes against the innocent people in Yemen.
Chanting slogans against the Saudi regime, the demonstrators in the Iranian capital, Tehran, and many other cities denounced the ongoing Saudi crimes in Yemen.
The protesters also condemned Washington’s support for Saudi Arabia’s aggression against the Muslim country. They also said Riyadh would be defeated in the war.
Saudi Arabia has been striking Yemen for 44 days now to restore power to fugitive president Mansour Hadi, a close ally of Riyadh. The Saudi-led aggression has so far killed at least 3,572 Yemenis, including hundreds of women and children.
Hadi stepped down in January and refused to reconsider the decision despite calls by Ansarullah revolutionaries of the Houthi movement.
Despite Riyadh’s claims that it is bombing the positions of the Ansarullah fighters, Saudi warplanes are flattening residential areas and civilian infrastructures.
On April 21, Saudi Arabia declared end to Yemen airstrikes after weeks of bombings, but airstrikes are still underway.
