Yemeni Minister Muammar al-Eryani condemns Houthi Death Sentences
The Yemeni Minister of Information and Culture,
Muammar Al-Eryani, accused the Houthi militia, on Friday, January 15, 2021, of
carrying out executions against civilians in the Al-Hayma in Taiz
governorate, southwestern Yemen, calling on the international community to
condemn them and punish the perpetrators.
The Iranian-backed Houthi militia executes civilians
in the field in the manner of Al-Qaeda and ISIS, after storming the villages
and homes of Al-Haima in Al-Taiziyah district in Taiz governorate, Al-Eryani
said, in a series of tweets on his Twitter account.
The Yemeni minister pointed out that the
Iranian-backed militia imitated their corpses and crucified them on trees, in
one of its barbaric terrorist crimes that befell humanity, adding: “This
heinous crime reminds us of the execution by the terrorist Al-Qaeda
organization and the crucifixion of the dentist Mazhar Al-Youssefi in the
health center of Al-Souma District in the governorate.
Al-Eryani said this confirms the conformity of the
practices, crimes and violations of the Houthi militia and its counterpart
terrorist groups, ISIS and Al-Qaeda.
The Yemeni Minister of Information called on the
international community and organizations and bodies concerned with human
rights to condemn the war crimes committed by the Houthi militia, the last of
which is the killing and crucifixion of civilians and the destruction and
burning of their homes in Al-Hima in Taiz, and work to include them in
terrorist lists, and to ensure that their leaders do not go unpunished.
