Arab League Council today strongly condemned Saturday's Houthi attack on a UAE civil vessel while sailing to Aden to deliver relief and medical assistance to needy Yemenis inside and evacuate some injured Yemenis to receive medical treatment in the United Arab Emirates. In a statement at the conclusion of its extraordinary session held at the permanent representatives level presided over by Tunisia, the Arab League said the attack is yet another flagrant violation of the international humanitarian law, is contrary to all international laws and norms and a threat to the international navigation. The Arab League demanded the United Nations and the Security Council to act swiftly to put an end to such terrorist acts committed by the Houthi militias and their supporters, and hold the suppliers of the Houthis as responsible as the Houthis for acts of international piracy and terrorism.
