Houthis Seize UN Rights Office in Sana'a, UN Demands Return of Assets
Aug 13, 2024, 12:44 PM
Yemen's Houthi rebels have stormed the United Nations Human Rights Office in the capital, Sana'a, seizing documents, furniture, and vehicles. The incident, which occurred on August 3, has been condemned by the United Nations, with UN rights chief Volker Turk demanding the immediate return of all assets and belongings. The seizure is part of a broader crackdown by the Houthis, who have detained over 60 UN staff members. Tensions have escalated in Sana'a, with negotiations ongoing for the release of UN and international organization staffers detained in June.
