Yemeni employees to donate wages to Gaza

Employees of the public and mixed sectors as well as private funds are to donate a day's wages to the people of Gaza.  

In its weekly meeting, the cabinet approved on Tuesday the donation of a day's wages in support for the Palestinians in the Gaza strip.

The meeting, which was chaired by Prime Minister Ali Muhammad Mujawar, listened to a report on the developments in the Gaza strip being under Israeli attacks for an eleven day.  

The meeting also reviewed Yemen's efforts to ease the sufferings of the Palestinians in Gaza launched since Israel waged a war on the strip on December 27, including President Ali Abdullah Saleh's call for holding an Arab emergency summit and the public's continuous support for Palestinians either through fund donations or condemnation of Israeli attacks and holding demonstrations.
