NCRI –\u00a0In a letter to the UN Secretary General, Yemen\u2019s Permanent Representative to the UN demanded that the Houthi militias be listed as a terrorist group.

Aljazeera TV, February 20:<\/strong><\/p>\n Regarding the letter sent by Yemen\u2019s government to the United Nations and complaining about the Iranian regime, Fayaz al-Naman, Yemen\u2019s senior propaganda official, talks to Aljazeera TV: \u201cHouthi rebels have committed such crimes as murder, displacement, bombing and targeting civilians and using them as human shields to move ahead with their plans. This group has also acted as the Iranian regime\u2019s military arm in Yemen to destabilize the country.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThe UN Security Council has issued two resolutions, prohibiting cooperation with Houthi rebels. But we see that the Iranian regime is still violating the law by militarily supporting the Houthis.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYemen\u2019s government has a clear strategy in dealing with Iranian regime\u2019s interventions in Yemen. The Iranian regime supported the Houthis from the beginning, both militarily and by training and arming them with smuggled weapons and drones. The Houthi rebel leader said in his recent speech that they have drones and ballistic weapons, which shows there\u2019s a strong relationship between the Iranian regime and the rebels. This is a dangerous sign which needs to be addressed by the United Nations.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" NCRI – In a letter to the UN Secretary General, Yemen’s Permanent Representative to the UN demanded that the Houthi militias be listed as a terrorist group.
