Crude oil prices fell in early Asian trading today, Tuesday, as investors' expectations of demand growth eased due to ongoing trade tensions between the United States and China.
Yemen's Information Minister Muammar al-Eryani said the UN peace mediator Martin Griffiths' silence over the daily Houthi crimes in Yemen is "suspicious and raises question marks."
The theocratic Houthi militia fired on Wednesday night a new ballistic missile into a neighborhood in the government-held city of Marib leaving six internally displaced persons injured, three women and children of them critically, and leaving others missing under the rubble.
Speaking to Saba moments after that attack, al-Eryani said, 'Marib, which hosts more than two million refugees who had fled the Houthi terrorism is coming under recurrent attacks with ballistic missiles and Iranian-made drones as the international community stands tightlipped and the UN Secretary General's Special Envoy to Yemen Martin Griffiths fails to condemn and stop these attacks."
He said, "Continuing this silence suspicious silence raises question marks."
