Yemen’s Supreme Revolutionary Committee Sends Letter To UN, Calling For Immediate End Of Saudi Aggression
KABUL: (MEP) After nearly ten months into Saudi Arabia’s military campaign leading a so-called Arab Coalition against its southern neighbor that has led to the killing and wounding of tens of thousands of civilians during the Coalition’s air raids; the humanitarian situation in the war-ravaged nation has tragically deteriorated particularly by imposing a suffocating blockade on the Arab world’s poorest country.
In this line, Yemen’s Supreme Revolutionary Committee addressed a letter to United Nations detailing the severe humanitarian crisis hitting all facets of life in Yemen — political, economic and military, etc— , and called for UN’s urgent action to end the Saudi-led war. The letter also explains how hundreds of innocent Yemenis perished during the terrible Saudi bombing raids in the past ten months and warned that if these outrageous attacks continue, Yemen’s key infrastructures will soon be on brink of collapse.
The first paragraph of the Yemen’s Supreme Revolutionary Committee’s letter to UN read as follows:” imposing a near-complete air and sea blockade has exacerbated the already calamitous situation in Yemen. The aggressors seek to thwart all possible initiations to send humanitarian aid to battle-scarred country by targeting bridges, transportation routes and Yemeni ports–most noticeably the Red Sea port of Hodeidah which is the sole Yemeni harbour, UN could perform its activities —.
The letter dated 16 February 2016, was handed over to UN Security Council and warned all members of the increasing threat the terrorist organizations can pose as well as the Saudi aggressors systematically targeting Yemen’s security apparatus.
In the later parts of the letter, the grim economic and political situation in Yemen has attributed to unlawful and endless interference of the so-called Arab Coalition–under the U.S. command in Washington, D.C. — in the Yemeni bloody conflict.
Yemen’s Supreme Revolutionary Committee concluded its letter by demanding the cessation of Saudi hostilities against Yemen and urged the international community to prevent catastrophic consequences of ongoing Saudi crusade against Yemeni civilians and to launch comprehensive investigations into war crimes committed by Saudi regime and its allies by the International Criminal Court (ICC).
