[09/05/2017 08:26]

Jeddah (Saba)- Deputy Human Rights Minister Majed Fadhail has called to designate the Houthi Movement as a terrorist group, asserting that is not less dangerous than al-Qaeda and ISIS.

In a speech delivered in the 11th Session of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation's (OIC) Independent Permanent Human Rights Commission (IPHRC) held in Jeddah from 07-11 May 2017 , he condemned the Iranian flagrant interference and its support to terrorism and terrorist groups in Yemen and other Arab states.

Fadhail reminded that the Houthi-Saleh militias abducted Director of the former republican presidency director and Secretary General of the National Dialogue Conference Ahmed Awad Bin Mubark, and imposes house arrest on President Abdo Rabbu Mansour Hadi and his cabinet members.

He also made clear that the Houthi-Saleh bombed the Republican Palace's branch in Aden, stormed southern eastern governorates, killed, injured, abducted civilians and captured their assets.

Fadhail also spoke in detail about the violations committed by the Houthi-Saleh militias across Yemen, underlying that they made appalling crimes against the Yemenis across Yemen.

He asserted that the Arab Coalition leaded in Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates vividly operate to fight terror organizations in all liberated areas.
