Yemen : Guterres Condemns Houthi Detention of Another 10 UN Staff
Aden -- United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Friday condemned the Houthi detention of another 10 UN personnel in Yemen, taking the total to 69, his spokesperson said.
The Iran-aligned Houthis detained the additional UN staff on Thursday, said UN spokesperson Stephane Dujarric, and Guterres calls for the immediate release of all those detained.
"These detentions render the delivery of UN humanitarian assistance in Houthi-controlled areas untenable. This directly affects millions of people in need and limits their access to life-saving assistance," Dujarric said.
The United Nations has repeatedly rejected Houthi accusations that UN staff or UN operations in Yemen were involved in spying.
