Minister of Human Rights Denounces Disregard of Saudi, Emirati Crimes during De-escalation Phase
The Minister of Human Rights, Ali Al-Dailami, stressed on the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights to work with credibility and clarity during the implementation of its activities in a way that serves civilians and protects them.
This came during his meeting, Sunday, with the representative of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, Ambassador Al-Din Sayed, where they discussed humanitarian and development issues and the difficulties facing the Commission in Yemen.
Al-Dailami pointed out the importance of the High Commissioner’s assessment of transparency in dealing, monitoring and documenting violations committed by the US-Saudi aggression against human rights and humanitarian aspects.
He denounced the continued disregard of the reports of international organizations for monitoring the violations and crimes committed by the Saudi and Emirati regimes and their tools during the de-escalation phase.
The Minister of Human Rights also affirmed that the US-Saudi aggression is still claiming hundreds of victims, whether through the continuation of killings in the border areas, or as a result of the aggression’s remnants of bombs and mines, and the blockade that causes the death of thousands of children and patients.
Saudi Arabia, backed by the United States and regional allies, launched the war on Yemen in March 2015, claiming the goal of bringing the government of former Yemeni president Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi back to power.
The US-Saudi aggression continues to target neighborhoods and populated areas and destroy the infrastructure and capabilities of the country, in light of a suspicious international silence.
The war has left hundreds of thousands of Yemenis dead and displaced millions more. It has also destroyed Yemen’s infrastructure and spread famine and infectious diseases there.
