HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS ARE LEFT HOMELESS IN YEMEN

In the statement made by the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), it was noted that the humanitarian situation in the city of Taiz continues to worsen due to the disruption of vital supply routes and increased pressure on basic services.

In the statement, it was stated that the roads reaching the city from the regions controlled by the Yemeni government are still cut or closed due to conflicts, and this situation prevents the delivery of life-saving humanitarian aid and commercial products.

It has been recorded that approximately 330 thousand people have been displaced throughout Yemen due to conflicts since the beginning of August. It was stated that 40 percent of the displaced people in Yemen were in Taiz, and the number of these people was approximately 140 thousand.

YEMEN GOVERNMENT REQUESTED THE HOUTHI TO BE DECLARED A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION

Yemeni Foreign Minister Afrah Abdulaziz al-Zube demanded that Islamic countries classify the Houthis as a "terrorist organization".

According to the Yemeni news agency SABA, Zube had a telephone conversation with the Secretary General of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), Ismail Vuldi Sheikh Ahmed.

During the meeting, the latest developments in Yemen and the region, strengthening cooperation between the Yemeni government and the OIC General Secretariat, and coordinating attitudes in Islamic and international platforms were evaluated.

Zube spoke about the consequences of the Houthis' siege on Taiz, their attacks on civilian facilities in Yemen and Saudi Arabia, and their threats to the security of international navigation in the Red Sea and Babulmandeb Strait.

Yemeni Foreign Minister Zube stated that Islamic countries should adopt a common and determined stance and asked for the Houthis to be "classified as a terrorist organization, their financial resources to be dried up and the flow of weapons to the organization to be stopped."
