JEDDAH-SABA
Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Mansour Bajjash has praised the active role of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation on caring of Yemeni people's issues and its call for taking serious action for banning Houthi militia's violations.

In a speech he delivered in the Emergency Meeting for Foreign Ministers of Member States in the Organization of Islamic Cooperation called by Saudi Arabia for taking quick actions for stopping targeting Saudi capital by Houthis, he confirmed that the aggressive behavior of firing ballistic rockets on Riyadh reflects how dangerous the militia is and who blatant the Iranian influence is.

Beating the Iranian agenda requires keeping the international community unified in supporting the legal government and protecting Yemen's unity, stability and sovereignty, as well as maintaining the three peace references and liberating the rest areas from the rebel militia.

On the other hand, Bajjash- on the sidelines of the meeting- discussed with Turkish Deputy Foreign Minister AhmetYaldez and the Moroccan State Minister for Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation aspects of cooperation.

He briefed them on the latest developments in Yemen and Houthi destruction to infrastructure in Yemen and the region.
