Yemen’s Supreme Revolutionary Committee called on Yemenis to hold massive protests against the Zionist regime’s meddling in the Arab country’s domestic affairs.

In a statement released on Sunday, the Committee said that protest rallies will be held this week against "Israel’s" interference and its direct participation in the aggression against Yemen, according to SABA news agency.

The Committee also condemned the massacre of Yemenis by the Saudi-led coalition, and described it as being in line with "Israel’s" plans and interests.

The statement further said that people’s participation in these protests will indicate to the entire world the decisive opposition of Yemenis to the Saudi-Zionist aggression and Tel Aviv’s colonialist policies in Yemen. 

Al-Alam TV cited the statement as saying that the Zionist regime’s greed in Yemen, especially in Bab el-Mandeb Strait, is secret to no one. 

The time and location of upcoming demonstrations will be announced soon, the statement added.

Since March 26, a Saudi-led coalition backed by the United States has been carrying out a military aggression by launching airstrikes on Yemen in a bid to undermine the Houthi Ansarullah movement and restore power to the fugitive former Yemeni president, Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi, a close ally of Saudi Arabia.

The airstrikes have not been authorized by the United Nations [UN]. 

According to the Yemeni health ministry, the death toll from the Saudi-led aggression against Yemen so far is more than 6,000, adding that 1,277 of those killed were children.
