Info minister warns of new waves of displacements under the pressure of Houthi military escalation

[29/09/2021 05:48]

ADEN – SABA
Yemen's Information Minister has warned of the impact of new waves of family displacements from IDP camps in west of Shabwa and south of Marib governorates as a result of the Houthi militia's military escalations in those regions.

Muammar al-Eryani said in a statement to Saba that the displacement of hundreds of families in those regions comes against the backdrop of the Houthi escalation and systematic targeted attacks on civilians and indiscriminate bombing of cities and villages homes with various types of weapons, including ballistic missiles and drones.

Al-Eryani indicated that already dozens of families have been forced to flee from those districts towards the overcrowded provincial capital of Marib, which accommodates 2,231,000 displaced people, making up 60% of the total displaced people in the entire Yemen and 7.5% of the total Yemeni population.

Al-Eryani called on the international community to assume their legal and humanitarian responsibilities, and break with the silence maintained toward the daily Houthi atrocities, an attitude which the militia interprets as a green light to go ahead with their war and killing and displacement of civilians.
