SANAA, June 26 (YPA) – Secretary General of the Supreme Council for Management and Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs Abdulmohsen Tawoos has criticized the role of the World Health Organization (WHO) in Yemen.
He revealed that the WHO was sending expired drugs, describing the donor conference for Yemen held in Riyadh as a scandal.
The recent donor conference in the capital of aggression in Riyadh is a scandal, and all the figures put forward in it only reach Yemen with crumbs,” Abdulmohsen Tawoos, the Secretary General of the Supreme Council for Management and Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs said during an interview with al-Masirah TV Channel on late Thursday.
He described role of the WHO as a negative. He criticized “its irresponsible treatment of aid to Yemen and its storage of medicines and medical equipment for long periods without allowing them to be delivered to those affected by the blockade and aggression.”
Regarding the issue of “CONTAINERS OF WHO” stacked at the Hodeidah port for months,he said that “there is deliberate delaying by the World Health Organization (WHO) in distributing of the medial aid to the health sector, confirming that “WHO stores send medicines to Yemen after most of them have expired”.
UN organizations have launched an intensified campaign on the humanitarian situation in Yemen as catastrophic, ahead of the donors’ conference in Yemen, and continue to issue warnings after they failed to raise $2.4 billion to fund the so-called Yemen’s “humanitarian response plan.”
