He emphasized the importance of supporting the military medical sector in the various liberated governorates and enhancing its capabilities to enable it to respond to emergency cases and provide necessary medical services to both members of the armed forces and civilians alike.

He also reviewed the attacks and violations committed by the Houthi terrorist militias, which constitute a flagrant breach of international humanitarian law, stressing the need for the ICRC to fulfill its role in documenting these violations and exerting pressure to protect civilians and medical facilities, and to ensure respect for international laws and norms.

For his part, the Head of the ICRC mission reaffirmed the Committee’s commitment to continuing its humanitarian and medical interventions and strengthening coordination with official authorities in a way that contributes to responding to urgent humanitarian needs.
