Fatah calls for urgent int'l intervention as Houthis attack WFP grain warehouse

ADEN-SABA
The chief of the national Higher Committee for Relief Aid Abduraqeeb Fatah has called for an urgent international intervention as Houthis attacked a World Food Program warehouse holding enough grain to feed 3.7 million Yemenis west of the country.

The rebel militia fired mortar shells on the Red Sea Mills causing damage in the silos and stocks hours after WFP officials wrapped up a hardly obtained visit to the site.

"The Houthi militia's attack on the Red Sea Mills in Hodeidah is a terrorist crime by all measures … and an urgent intervention by the international community is required to counter these recurrent terrorist attacks against relief aid," Fatah said in a statement to Saba.

He called on the UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs Mark Lowcock and the Humanitarian Coordinator in Yemen Lisa Grande to report these crimes to the UN Security Council given their enormous and direct impact on the already wretched humanitarian crisis in the militia-controlled territories.

He stressed the imperative need to move the warehouses of UN organizations to government-held territories and to ensure the delivery of aid to all Yemen's regions.

This is the fifth such attack by Houthis on the Mills in three months, said Fatah.
