According to the AhlulBayt World Assembly News Portal: <\/strong>Coinciding with the intensification of the aggression of the Arab-Western-Hebrew coalition in attacking the oppressed people of Yemen, the International Conference \u201cInvestigating the Dimensions of the Aggression against Yemen\u201d was held on Saturday, February 5, 2022, by the Arbaeen International Foundation in cooperation with the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly and coordinated institutions.<\/p>\n

After thanking for the invitation to the conference, Dr. Massoud Shajreh, Chairman of the London Commission on Human Rights, said, \u201cOur support for the Yemeni people is not only because of the invasion of rich countries, but also because of the issue of genocide in the country for the last 8 years.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIn addition, all infrastructure and hospitals have been destroyed. The United Nations has also called the situation in Yemen one of the greatest catastrophes,\u201d added the head of the London Commission for Human Rights, condemning the indiscriminate bombing and killing of civilians.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery year, it is announced that the Yemeni people are oppressed, thousands of Yemeni children die due to malnutrition, the medical equipment is exhausted, there are few hospitals that are not destroyed, the people do not even have access to bread,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cSanctions are also a war crime against civilians,\u201d Dr. Shajreh stated, \u201cSanctions are of the most important factors that destroy everything.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe United States, Europeans, and other countries are selling arms to the UAE and Saudi Arabia to attack civilians, claiming that the arms sales are for money,\u201d said the head of the London Commission on Human Rights, in protest of the silence of the international community.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe amount of money that buyers spend to buy these weapons and armaments in the Yemeni war is one or one and a half percent of the total income of the countries that sell weapons. This means that the purchase price of these weapons has no effect on the economy of Western countries. In fact, these dependent (Arab) countries commit crimes on behalf of the Western countries,\u201d he said, explaining the facts about arms sales to Saudi Arabia and the UAE.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe must put pressure on the international community because the lives of millions are at stake. We must put pressure on the United Nations,\u201d Dr. Shajreh said, describing this crime as the most hateful act of Western and Arab countries.<\/p>\n

\u201cOf course, Western governments have the veto and will veto UN\u2019s any decisions on the issue. But we must do our best and speak freely in all the tribunes that Yemen must be liberated. We must support Yemen,\u201d the head of the London Commission on Human Rights emphasized.<\/p>\n

\u201cI pray for the Yemenis, and I\u2019m sure that they eventually will win. I pray that the Yemenis and the Houthis become independent. The tyrants and oppressors will learn a lesson and will be tried in the court of divine justice,\u201d he said, describing the situation of Saudi Arabia and the UAE in increasing losses.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Criticizing the deteriorating situation in Yemen and the food and medicine famine, Dr. Shajreh said, \u201cThese people resist without any means, and despite the destruction of all their infrastructure, and do not bow down to the arrogant.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":321001,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[54],"tags":[4880],"class_list":["post-321004","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-yemen"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/321004","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=321004"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/321004\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":407439,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/321004\/revisions\/407439"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/321001"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=321004"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=321004"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ahlulbaytworldassembly.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=321004"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
