SANA'A, Aug. 22 (Saba) - The Secretary-General of the Supreme Council for the Management and Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs and International Cooperation, Ibrahim Al-Hamali, discussed on Tuesday with the Deputy Resident Coordinator of the United Nations for Humanitarian Affairs in Sana’a Diego Zorrilla, the humanitarian situation in Yemen in light of the continued aggression and siege.
The meeting was attended by the Head of the Planning Department, Faisal Modhish, and the Deputy Director of the OCHA Office in Yemen, Saeed Hersi, touched on aspects related to reducing humanitarian aid, which aggravated citizens' suffering.
SCMCHA Secretary-General pointed to the importance of the role of UN and international organizations in alleviating Yemeni people's suffering as a result of the humanitarian crisis caused by the aggression and siege.
Al-Hamali called on the United Nations to work on increasing and expanding humanitarian aid and distributing it on a monthly basis, pointing to the World Food Program's announcement to reduce humanitarian aid, which is actually reduced and does not meet the level of need.
He called on international organizations to support the National Center for Mine Action, pointing to the increase in civilian victims' number who fell as a result of mines.
Al-Hamali pointed out that the council is carrying out its full duties and responsibilities by facilitating the work of organizations in Yemen, stressing that the organizations have not been exposed to any security incidents or threats in the areas of the Salvation Government, unlike the areas under the control of the aggression and its mercenaries.
He also stressed the need to work on implementing sustainable service projects and finding emergency solutions and treatments to confront disasters and damage and protect citizens from the flow of torrents.
The Deputy Resident Coordinator of the United Nations expressed his understanding of the humanitarian situation in Yemen, stressing that he will convey what has been proposed to find solutions and remedies to alleviate human suffering in Yemen.
