NEW YORK- SABA
Yemen's permanent representative to UN, ambassador Khalid Al-Yamani, stated that federal democratic Yemen is the dream of the Yemeni youths who can actively contribute to the international youthful action.
Speaking at an open debate session about maintaining international peace and security: "Youth, Peace and Security in UNSC', he said :"Houthi militia had continued to carry out gruesome violations against innocent civilians including young, children and old people".
He added that "violations have reached unprecedented staggering figures. Total number of the detainees, abductees and forced disappearances exceed 16,800 persons within roughly two and half years. Young people made up some 80% out of this figure".
The ambassador went on saying:" The Houthi putschist militia have tuned 484 of public and private-owned premises—including government's building, medical, educational, judicial, sporting facilities and houses into detentions".
Al-Yamani continued to say that violations included execution outside law, arbitrary arrest, torture, curtailing media freedom, blocking electronic media websites, recruitment of children, widely planting landmines devices, turning educational, health and sporting facilities into military barracks.
The ambassador called on the international community to shoulder its legal and moral responsibility toward the violations that the Yemeni youths have been subjected to.
" International community ought to press for enforcing the International Security Council resolutions about the Yemen, namely resolution 2216", said Al-Yamani.
