In statement to the Yemeni News Agency (Saba) Fatah described the Houthi militia kidnapping 2 UN's workers and one more worker by the end of last month as a crime under international and humanitarian laws, holding the militia accountable for obstructing the humanitarian actions in the regions they control.

Fatah called on the UN Coordinator for the Humanitarian Affairs and the Acting Coordinator for Relief and Humanitarian Actions in Yemen to move immediately to release the UN's workers.

Fatah also asked the Secretary General of the UN to condemn such savage actions the militia has been carrying out against the international humanitarian organizations.
