UN and NGO Leaders Renew Urgent Calls for Release of Arbitrarily Detained Staff in Yemen
Oct 13, 2024, 02:41 PM
Senior officials from the United Nations and international non-governmental organizations have renewed urgent calls for the immediate and unconditional release of their personnel arbitrarily detained by the Houthi de facto authorities in Yemen. Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General of the World Health Organization, joined fellow heads of UN entities and international organizations in appealing for their staff's release. The detained staff members, who have been held for extended periods, are reportedly facing the prospect of criminal prosecution. Some reports indicate that the Houthis have accused the UN and NGO workers of spying for Israel. The situation has raised significant concern among UN agencies and NGOs, prompting joint statements and appeals for their immediate and unconditional release.
