ADEN - SABA
Yemen's government has vowed to prosecute the Houthi criminals responsible for atrocities in the militia's areas of control in international courts.

Information Minister Muammar al-Eryani said, "The prosecutions over the crimes and abuses … will not be barred by the lapse of time or go unpunished."

In a statement to Saba, al-Eryani said the militants responsible for these abuses, whether superiors or subordinates [in the militia's ranks] will be held accountable and tried in international courts as war criminals."

Al-Eryani said, "The appalling crimes and abuses the Iran-backed Houthis commit are unprecedented atrocities in the history of Yemen."

"The daily criminal practices against civilians in the hijacked capital Sana'a and other areas under the militia's control exemplify the savageness and brutality of the Houthi militia and underline that that their conduct are not different to of other terrorist organizations."
