He touched upon US Administration's decision of blacklisting Houthi militia as terrorist organization and steps taken by the government to keep humanitarian and relief domains away of effects of the decision.

" The attack was an attempt for assassinating peace and failing all UN and international efforts in this field and the international community must understand Houthi militia continues implementing Iranian agenda for blackmailing the international community, neglecting suffering of Yemeni people," said FM.
