Jan 24, 2025, 12:35 PM
The United Nations announced on Friday that it has suspended all official movements into and within areas controlled by Yemen's Houthi rebels until further notice, after additional UN personnel were detained on Thursday. The UN is calling for the immediate and unconditional release of all detained staff members held by the de facto authorities in Sanaa. This decision follows the detention of 13 UN workers by the Houthis last June. The suspension aims to prioritize the safety of UN staff amid ongoing security concerns.
