Delivering the YCMHRV's speech before the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva, journalist Hamdan al-Aiyy said that the disabled in Yemen have lost all of their rights including the minimum right of rehabilitation since 350 rehab cente4rs have closed as a result of the ongoing war.

He said that more and more civilians are losing their limbs as a result of landmines that are internationally banned by the Houthi rebel militia has been planting in all Yemeni cities and provinces to this moment.

He said such landmines are the main cause of war-related handicaps in Yemen. He wondered what the UNHRC would do to stop the increase of war-related handicaps.
