The participants emphasized that to revive such events expose the crimes of coalition and its brutality, stressing that the revival of such events also gives a sign to the coalition that the Yemeni people will not waste the blood of the killed no matter how the coalition put efforts politically or militarily, to make them forget over time.
Participants assured that Yemenis are still demanding the Security Council and the United Nations to form an independent international commission of inquiry and prosecute criminals because they are genocide crimes that every law disclaims it.
During the rally, a statement was held that reminds the people of the Zaidiyah of the second anniversary of the massacre, which targeted prisoners by a Saudi airstrike.
