Urgent Appeal by UN Secretary-General
Antonio Guterres, the UN Secretary-General, has made a heartfelt plea for the immediate release of aid workers detained by Yemen’s Huthi rebels. This group includes essential UN staff who are vital for humanitarian efforts in the region. Their detention raises serious concerns about the safety of humanitarian personnel and the ongoing crisis in Yemen.
Guterres emphasized that the work of these aid workers is critical for providing assistance to those in dire need. As the humanitarian situation in Yemen deteriorates, the demand for aid continues to rise. The international community watches closely, hoping for a swift resolution to this troubling situation that hinders humanitarian access.
