"The war that the militia caused the prevalence of cholera and latest statistics show that the accumulative number of infections has reached 600,000 to now, the mortalities of them 2056. The unsafe drinking water was the main cause behind the spread of this epidemic," he added.

He said: "The persistent violation of the right to development is also stark violation of the rights of the coming generations.

"The first step to put things back on track is to end the Saleh-Houthi militias coup and restore the state institutions and heavy and medium arms from the militias' hands as per the UNSC resolution 2216."
