The parties said, "We hope this decision will set a limit to the savage Houthi savage crimes … which have extended to all the provinces and evolved to unprecedented massacres as what is now happening in Taiz's Haymah outskirts and hundreds of previous massacres whose victims were mostly children and women."

The parties called upon the international community "to lend a helping hand to the legitimate government to confront this terrorism and restore" peaceful life for the Yemeni people.
