The Houthi-run foreign ministry in Sana’a, part of a government not internationally recognized, said its recent decision to launch military intervention was a response to what it described as attacks targeting Iran, Palestine, Iraq and Lebanon, calling them a “blatant violation” of the UN Charter and international humanitarian law.
In messages sent to the UN Secretary-General, the President of the General Assembly, members of the UN Security Council, the European Union, and the UN Special Envoy to Yemen, Deputy Foreign Minister Abdulwahid Aburas said the group’s military move followed a month of escalating regional conflict, which he said included strikes on civilians and civilian infrastructure.
