ADEN - SABA
Prime Minister Ahmed bin Mubarak chaired Thursday a government meeting dedicated to evaluating the course of humanitarian and development interventions by UN and international agencies and organizations.
The meeting also discussed measures taken to facilitate the completion of the relocation of the organizations' headquarters to Aden, enabling them to perform their duties without obstacles or restrictions.
The meeting addressed the ongoing violations by the terrorist Houthi militias against humanitarian and relief work, the latest of which was the kidnapping of dozens of United Nations agency employees, and international and local non-governmental organizations working in Yemen.
The meeting adopted several decisions and measures to deal with the latest developments in the relief and humanitarian aspects, including the continued violations of the Houthi militias against UN and international organizations and their personnel.
It directed the relevant ministries and authorities to implement what falls within their competence to provide all necessary facilities to ensure the relocation of UN and international organizations to the temporary capital Aden to serve all citizens across Yemen.
The meeting discussed a report on the developments of the terrorist Houthi militia's arrests of employees of UN and international organizations, and the government's plans to correct the course of humanitarian and development work for donors in Yemen, which included a comprehensive presentation on the Houthis' violations and practices towards UN and development organizations, and the diversion of donor funds for their benefit.
The meeting reiterated the warning about the risks of overlooking the violations of the Houthi militias and the methods of extortion and pressure they exert on the humanitarian organizations operating in Yemen, through which they seek to serve their political agenda, and divert humanitarian aid to serve their security and military objectives, and turn the areas under their control into a prison for anyone who opposes their policies.
It emphasized the need to take urgent measures to put pressure on the Houthi militias to ensure the safety of the kidnapped UN employees, international agencies, and civil society organizations, and to release them immediately without conditions.
