"The United Nations kills Yemeni children" is the title of this symposium held by the Ansarullah Political Bureau and the anti-aggression parties bloc. The aim is to discuss the UN role in providing the political cover-up for all the illegal actions of Saudi Arabia, including the Saudi crimes committed against Yemeni children.
Participants said the UN realizes the Saudi crimes committed against Yemeni children. They added the name of the kingdom to the blacklist of groups blamed for violating children’s rights. Riyadh, however, used its funding for the UN to remove its name from the list.
Besides the brutal war, Saudi Arabia has maintained an all-out blockade on Yemen since the beginning of 2015.
The Saudi blockade deprived millions of Yemenis of their basic needs and pushed the war-torn country to the brink of famine.
People here blame the United Nations for remaining silent toward the ongoing Saudi crimes against Yemenis, including the continued illegal detention of Yemeni oil ships which is a clear violation of the rights of the entire people of the war-ravaged nation.
