The Yemeni Coalition for Monitoring Human Rights Violations has called on the UN Human Rights Council UNHRC to oblige the Saleh-Houthi coup militias to implement its resolutions. The coalition specified resolutions 17/18 of 2011 and 27/29 of 2014.
The coalition's executive manager Mutahhar al-Budheijimade the appeal as he presented his organization's report on the status of human rights in Yemen in the 36th session of the UNHRC in Geneva today.
He urged the UNHRC "to call on the warring Yemeni parties to abide by the principles of the International Humanitarian Law and the Law on Human Rights."
He also asked for "capacity building aid to the National Committee for Investigating Into Alleged Human Rights Abuses."
The coalition recorded 55334 violations and material damages and human harms in 20 provinces during the period 1st January to 31st July of this year, he said.
"The warring parties are still committing numerous violations of the International Humanitarian Law and the Law on Human Rights as the war now enters its third year."
"As a result of the Saleh-Houthi militias' systematic shelling on neighborhoods and other military acts in Taiz and other conflict zones, 921 civilians including 229 children, 43 women and 56 elderly persons", he said, referring to the toll within the said period.
