Houthis urge UN to resume aid distribution to fend off famine in Yemen

April 17,2024

Yemen's Houthi group called on the United Nations on Wednesday to resume food aid distribution in the war-torn country to mitigate "dangerous stages" of famine.

Ibrahim al-Hamli, an aid official in the Houthi group, discussed with UN Resident Coordinator in Sanaa Julian Harneis the "humanitarian suffering" in Yemen, the Houthi-run Saba news agency reported.

In December 2023, the UN World Food Program (WFP) suspended its food aid program in areas controlled by the Houthi group in northern Yemen due to limited funding and disagreements with the Houthis.

"The suspension of food aid has exacerbated humanitarian suffering, leading to an increase in food insecurity and cases of malnutrition among the displaced people, especially children," al-Hamli said.

He underlined the need to resume food aid distribution in Yemen "to prevent the country from sliding into dangerous stages of famine."

Yemen has fallen into civil war since 2014 when Iran-backed Houthi rebels seized much of the country, including the capital Sanaa, forcing the internationally recognized government to set up an interim capital in the coastal city of Aden.

UN estimates that in 2024, over 20 million people - over half the population - will need humanitarian assistance and protection services in Yemen.

According to UN figures, 17.6 million people will be severely food insecure and an estimated 2.7 million women and five million children under five will need treatment for acute malnutrition.

Leftists and the Ayatollahs have a lot in common when it comes to criticism of Islam, they don't tolerate it.

You know that the Houthis were the first cab off the rank against Al Quaeda, Islamic State and Saudi Arabia in those heady days of not that much of yore.

How fickle the allegiance of the West is. Especially the pig-ignorant ones.

If you can't be a good example, you have to be a horrible warning.

Yeah, start civil war, starve and kill your people, attack international shipping - and be rewarded for it with aid.

Why don't you call for aid to Hamarse, Hezb'allah, the Iranian Republican Guard and the rest of the deranged, grusome jihadi monsters, bint?

According to the The Economist - the Houthis barred access to international aid workers. They tax shipments, sell aid and charge customs fees at checkpoints. In sum, they treat the aid programme worth billions of dollars as a cash cow. And they use aid as a weapon.

Human Rights Watch reports that Houthis recruit children as young as 13 as child soldiers. Recruiting children younger than 15 is a war crime. But only the families of those child soldiers receive food aid packages.

It seems that the pig ignorant ones are those who actually do not have any understanding of muslims. The reason the Houthis hate Al Quaeda, Islamic State and Saudi Arabia is because they are all radical sunnis. The Houthi are radical shiites. And they've been fighting ever since Mohammed kicked the bucket.

Can you imagine how much more Mothra would complain if we maintained any sort of allegiance with them?
