Secretary of Iran’s Expediency Council (EC) Mohsen Rezayee lambasted the world for its inaction on Riyadh’s savage crimes against the innocent Yemeni people and keeping mum in this regard “It is as if the people of Yemen have been forgotten and no one in the world takes any action in their favor,” Rezayee said. He underlined that the depth of Yemen’s tragedy is not even comparable with what is happening in Palestine. Saudi Arabia has been striking Yemen since March 2015 to restore power to fugitive president Mansour Hadi, a close ally of Riyadh. The Saudi-led aggression has so far killed at least 14,100 Yemenis, including hundreds of women and children.

Meanwhile, a cholera epidemic has killed over 1,500 people in Yemen since late April as, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), the war-torn country is facing the “world’s worst cholera outbreak”. Despite Riyadh’s claims that it is bombing the positions of the Ansarullah fighters, Saudi bombers are flattening residential areas and civilian infrastructures. According to several reports, the Saudi-led air campaign against Yemen has drove the impoverished country towards humanitarian disaster. Nearly 3.3 million Yemeni people, including 2.1 million children, are currently suffering from acute malnutrition. The al-Saud aggression has also taken a heavy toll on the country’s facilities and infrastructure, destroying many hospitals, schools and factories.
