UNSC condemns Houthi attack on UAE ship
During more than a year of routine journeys to Aden, the ship has carried some 100,000 food packages and helped evacuate more than 1,000 wounded people.
New York - Arab Today
The UN Security Council has strongly condemned the Houthi militia's attack on a UAE vessel off the coast of Yemen and called for such attacks to “cease immediately.”
The members of the Security Council take threats to shipping around Bab al-Mandeb, a strategically important shipping passage, extremely seriously,” the 15-nation UN body said in a press statement issued here late Tuesday.
The Council called for such attacks to cease immediately and urged necessary steps to be taken to de-escalate the situation.
The vessel, an Australian-built high-speed logistics catamaran under lease to the UAE military, was attacked by Houthi fighters near the Bab al-Mandab strait off Yemen’s southern coast on Saturday, reports said.
The Saudi-led coalition rescued civilian passengers and no crew members were hurt.
