Minister of Local Administration in the Caretaker government—Chairman of High Relief Committee (HRC)—Abduraqeeb Fatah called on the UN Coordinator for Humanitarian Affairs in Yemen to hold Iran-backed Houthi militia fully responsible for the crimes it has been committing against civilians in several Yemeni governorates.
The Minister voiced his condemnation for the repeated avoidance by the Coordinator for Humanitarian Affairs in Yemen to openly condemn Houthi militia's deliberately committed crimes in Marib, Aljwaf, Hodeidah, Taiz, Hajja and elsewhere.
He stated that in here statements about what happens in our country the Coordinator for Humanitarian Affairs used to escape denouncing the militia's crimes, most recent one, Houthis' shelling a sporting club in Taiz on Saturday, killing the football player Nasser Arrymi, his son and hurting two boys more.
In a statement learned by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba) Fatah indicated that the Coordinator for Humanitarian Affairs and her Office bear direct responsibility for not telling the truth, turning blind eye upon perpetrators.
The Minister of Local Administration called on the UN Coordinator for Humanitarian Affairs in Yemen to reconsider her statements about the humanitarian crisis in Yemen and act responsibly in accordance with the UN's humanitarian conventions.
