The Supreme Committee for Relief Aid has condemned Friday's "massacre by the Saleh-Houthi militias in Taiz" and called on the UN Humanitarian Coordinator Jamie McGoldrickand all humanitarian organizations in Yemen to act swiftly to save the Taizi people and provide them with aids and medicines.

In a new press statement, the Committee said the coup militias shelled some neighborhoods in the city of Taiz on Friday "incurring several casualties, most of them children."

The Committeecalled on McGoldrickto closely inspect the committed crimes and condemn them clearly. It said he "bears full responsibility for not reporting the militias' crimes to the UN and UN Security Council."

It called on McGoldrick to pressure on the militias by all means to stop their spree of atrocities.

It condemned "the crimes of shelling neighborhoods with heavy and medium weapons and driving civilians out of their houses at gunpoint, which has led to the increase of IDPs in several parts of the country."

It called on "the international community and the UN Human Rights Council to look into these crimes, condemn them and take a seriously firm stance on them." The silence for such serial atrocities is a shame on the international community."
It warned that Taiz is edging closer to a humanitarian catastrophe due to the militias' three year old siege on the highly populated city.
