JEDDAH-SABA
The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (IOC) has denounced the Saleh-Houthi militia's bombing of a humanitarian aid convoy in Marib and missile attack on a UAE ship off the Mokha Red Sea coast.

The attack on lorries carrying humanitarian relief aid from King Salman Center is a stark violation of the international humanitarian law and poses a threat to all humanitarian aid efforts in the country, said the OIC secretary general Dr. Yusuf bin Ahmed al-Otheimeen.

Attacking the UAE ship means threatening the safety of shipping in the Red Sea and undermining the region's stability, he said.

The attacks show the Saleh-Houthi militia's insistence to continue their hostile policies, he added.

He called on the UN Security Council to take to press the militia into complying with the UN resolution and ceasing their criminal activities that have always and still been compromising the regional and international security.
