Yemeni parliament listens to Paris forum message over Int’l peace conference for Yemen

SANAA, Oct. 27 (YPA) – Yemeni parliament chaired by Yahya Ali al-Raei, listened to a message from peace forum held in Paris over the international parliamentary conference for Yemen in November 2018.

The letter referred to four-year old war of Saudi-UAE-led coalition that has caused catastrophic disaster in Yemen and suffering over 22.2 million people, including 11 million children in need to the urgent humanitarian assistance.

The message stressed on the importance of the world’s parliaments’ role to stop the coalition’s war crimes and violations against Yemenis and end the siege and war that caused the humanitarian disaster.

It said that Human Rights Council’s report, which affirmed the coalition’s air attacks on the Yemeni civilians and infrastructures, as well as the blockade of ports and Sanaa airport are “war crimes.”
