Aden, (Saba) - The Towahi Genocide, took place in Aden two years ago, will not be forgotten and Houthi-Saleh's militias and their leaders, who committed the crime, will get their just and due punishment sooner or later, Yemen's Ministry of Human Rights has said.
In a release issued Saturday by the ministry on the Second Memorial of Towahi carnage committed by rebel militias against citizens, most of them children and women, while on boat trying to flee Houthi-Saleh's war in Aden, the ministry says in this day while dozens of women, children and armless people were displacing in Buraika port, mortar shells rained on the people on boats and killed 28 people and injuring 22 others, most of them children and women.
The crime coincided many similar genocides the militias committed in Aden and Taiz.
"The ministry, while it commemorates the second memory of Towahi genocides, it witnesses the killer is still practicing killing more savagely than before, using civilians as human shields and practicing different forms of violations against civilians; kidnapping, illegal arrest, torture, forcibly disappearance, looting public and private funds, terrifying women and children and monopolizing humanitarian relief and assistance for financing his war against civilians," the release went on.
