A protest organized in solidarity with Saudi Arabia against Iranian attacks in Yemen witnessed a striking contradiction. During the demonstration held in a Saudi-controlled area, protesters tore up photos of King Salman and the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, whom they were supposed to support. The Yemeni President was also targeted in the same protest, which made the direction of the reactions controversial.
The protest organized in solidarity with Saudi Arabia against Iranian attacks in Yemen featured striking images. The demonstrators tore up photos of Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, and the President of Yemen.
PROTEST TOOK PLACE IN A REGION UNDER SAUDI CONTROL
It was noteworthy that the incident occurred in a region controlled by Saudi Arabia, not Iran. The fact that some Yemenis participating in the demonstration reacted against the leaders during the event organized in support of Saudi Arabia presented a contradictory picture.
TENSION AND REACTION AT THE SAME TIME
The protest's inclusion of reactions against both Iran and the local authorities in the region once again highlighted the depth of political and social tension in Yemen.
