CAIRO-SABA
The Arab League Foreign Ministers Council has renewed its support for the Yemeni government in its efforts to end the Saleh-Houthi coup d'état and re-normalize lifein the areas it retakes.

At the end of its 148th session in Cairoon Tuesday, the Council issued a decision whereby itwelcomed the Yemeni government's acceptance of the UN Special Envoy IsmaiilOuldCheikh Ahmed's proposal concerning the Hodeida Red Seaport's handover by the coup militias to a third party to ensure its use for civil purposes only.

The council affirmed support to Yemen's unity, sovereignty and commitment to the three references for any peace with the militias.

The Council called for supporting the government's efforts to curb the spread of the cholera epidemic, face the threat of famine and terrorism which Saleh-Houthi insurgency offers a very conducive environment to.

The Council condemned the militias' myriad forms of human rights abuse; "killing, abducting, forcible disappearance, detonation of houses, recruitment of child soldiers, using schools and healthcare centers for military purposes, besieging the city of Taiz for three years now and continuous heavy and indiscriminate bombardment of the city's neighborhoods which has claimed a high toll of civilians, wreaked great havoc, caused the closure of health facilities, which leads to the spread of epidemics."

The Council called on the international donors to fulfill the pledges they made in April 2017 in Geneva to Yemen. It condemned the militias' persistent missile attacks on Saudi Arabia.
