Security Council’s call on Saada massacre aims to bury crime: Ansaruallah member

SANAA, Aug.11 (YPA) – A member of Ansaruallah Political Bureau, on Saturday criticized the call of the UN Secuirty Council for the formation of a commission of inquiry on the massacre of the Saudi-led coalition in Dhayan district of Saada province.

“The criminal’s call for investigation into his crime is nothing more than a call to bury the crime,” the Ansaruallah member Abdulmalik al-Ajari said in a press statement.

Al-Ajari pointed out that the Security Council did not need to meet in order to call for a transparent investigation into the terrible Dhahyan crime.

“If the Security Council was serious, it had to announce the formation of an independent commission of inquiry into the crime immediately,” he added.

In a closed session on Yemen, the UN Security Council called for a transparent investigation into the Dhahyan students massacre carried out last Thursday by the coalition warplanes in Saada.

The Health Ministry in Sanaa has announced that 51 people, including 40 children, were killed in Dhahyan massacre, in a non-final toll, and 79 others wounded, including 56 children.

“The death toll is likely to rise because there many unidentified bodies and missing,” the health minister Dr. Taha al-Mutawakil said in a press conference on Friday.
