Saudi envoy regrets UN overlooking Houthi crimes


(MENAFN) Saudi Arabia's Ambassador to Yemen Mohammed bin Saeed Al-Jaber slammed the UN silence over Houthi terrorists' crimes.

The UN agencies were found to be dismissing several wrongdoings Houthis have committed, with the latest ones against humanitarian assistance to Yemen.

The ambassador further noted that Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Kuwait allocated USD1.25 billion of humanitarian aid at the UN for Yemen.

The envoy added: "we have informed UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs Mark Lowcock and the Humanitarian Coordinator of the United Nations, in Yemen, Lise Grande, that only 40 percent of those funds have been spent, in areas under the control of the Houthi militias."
