Human Rights: US-Saudi Aggression Tightens Siege Against The Yemeni People

The Acting Minister of Human Rights, Ali Al-Dailami, confirmed that the escalation of the US-Saudi-Emirati aggression is tightening the siege and piracy on fuel ships which is an evidence of their involvement in committing crimes of collective punishment against the Yemeni people.

He explained that the aggression countries’ piracy on fuel ships is part of their plan to restrict Yemenis as a means pressure to achieve political aims. He pointed out that preventing the US-Saudi aggression from entering the ships of fuel, violates the divine laws, humanitarian laws, protocols and treaties, which emphasize the protection of civilians, which the countries of aggression have not paid any attention to over the past years.

“The siege falls within the crimes of violations committed by the countries of the US-Saudi-Emirati aggression in Yemen, which will have catastrophic effects, and the regimes causing and participating in these crimes will not escape accountability and punishment” Al-Dailami said.

He held the United Nations and the Security Council to be fully responsible for the catastrophic humanitarian situation that Yemen has reached, which requires the UN and Security Council to open Sana’a International Airport and the port of Hodeidah to enter the needs of Yemenis.

He warned of the aggravation of the humanitarian situation as a result of stopping the sectors that provide basic services to citizens, such as hospitals, electricity, water, and others

Al-Dailami called for organizing protest in front of UN building in Sana’a next Wednesday to denounce the continued violations of the aggression countries and to tighten their siege on the Yemeni people, and to demand the lifting of the siege, allowing the entry of fuel ships and the opening of Sana’a International Airport.
