Protesters Block Roads and Storm Presidential Resident in Aden
The Protesters stormed, Tuesday, the gate of the Presidential Resident ,Al-Maasheeq Palace, in occupied city of Aden. Angry popular demonstrations continued, protesting against the collapse of the economic and security conditions in Saudi-UAE occupied areas.
Media sources confirmed that hundreds of protesters blocked all roads leading to place in Crater area, by igniting damaged tires. These demonstrations are condemning the difficult living situation and neglect of basic services in the city.
The protesters chanted slogans against the US-Saudi aggression and UAE occupation militia that controls the city, and chants denouncing the collapse of economy, national currency, the rise in prices and lack of services.
The sources indicated that protesters decided to escalate and organize their protest activities in front of the Presidential Resident, after the occupation militia affiliated with the so-called (Transitional Council) opened fire on the protesters.
The city of Aden is witnessing, for the second day in a row popular movement for the revolution of the hungry, amid attempts to suppress the protests by the US-Saudi aggression.
Other sources pointed out that the angry protests in Aden called for civil disobedience for the failure of the Saudi-led coalition, and the false promises made since the invasion of the city in the second half of 2015.
Aden protests came two days after the outbreak of a popular uprising in Mukalla city, the capital of Hadramout province, which spread to Shihr and Ghail Bawazir cities, calling for improving living conditions and the level of electricity and water services.
Saudi Arabia and many of its allies have been waging a war on Yemen since 2015 to restore power there to the country’s Riyadh-friendly former officials. The war and a simultaneous siege that the US-Saudi-led coalition has been enforcing on the country has killed hundreds of thousands of Yemenis.
The invasion has pushed entire Yemen close to the brink of outright famine, turning the country into the scene of the world’s worst humanitarian crisis.
