Thousands march for Yemen Hezbollah Houthi chief al-Sammad martyred zionist Saudi airstrike

Thousands rallied in the streets of Sa’dah on Monday to protest the killing of senior Houthi official Saleh Al-Sammad in Saudi-led coalition airstrike on April 19th.

Al-Sammad was allegedly killed in an air raid with his six companions on the way to meeting with local officials in Hodeidah.

Former director of the Houthis leader office Mahdi al-Mashat was later sworn in as president of the Supreme Political Council, replacing Sammad.

The Saudi-led bombing campaign continues in Yemen with US backing. The United Nations estimated that more than 10,000 have been killed and more than three million people have been displaced since beginning of the war in March 2015.
