Fully-veiled Yemeni women protest on January 24, 2011 outside the public prosecution headquarters in Sanaa, along with thousands of demonstrators including leaders of parliamentary opposition parties who observed a solidarity sit-in with political activist Tawakel Karman. Kerman was set free by the authorities following her arrest over the weekend on charges of inciting disorder through her involvement in protests for Tunisia’s uprising at which calls were raised for political change in Yemen.

“Kami di sini untuk menurunkan sebuah rezim korup dan tirani,” kata Najib Ghanem, anggota parlemen dari partai Al-Islah Islam yang dimiliki oleh aliansi Forum umum dari partai oposisi, seperti dikutip dari situs AFP, Jumat (4/2/2011).
Aksi tersebut digelar sehari setelah Presiden Ali berjanji akan lengser dari tahtanya pada 2013 mendatang. Namun hal tersebut rupanya tidak dijkendaki oleh para pendukung demokrasi di Yaman.Aksi anti pemerintahan ini diawali dengan longmarch dari Universitas Sanaa menuju pusat kota.
“Pemberontakan keadilan mulai di Tunisia. Itu berlanjut sampai sekarang di Mesir, dan Yaman besok akan bebas dari ketidakadilan,” ujar para anti pemerintah lewat pengeras suara.

Namun massa anti pro pemerintah seperti yang terjadi di Mesir juga terulang di Yaman. Demonstran Pro-Ali juga keluar dengan jumlah puluhan ribu. Mereka juga menyerukan dukungannya kepada presiden berkuasa dan menunding para demontran anti pemerintah sebagai para pengacau.
“Kami dengan Ali Abdullah Saleh Kami dengan Yaman. Pihak oposisi ingin menghancurkan Yaman. Dan tidak untuk kehancuran, tidak untuk hasutan,”ujar para pro pemerintah lewat spanduk yang dibawanya. (her/mei)
