Top United Nations officials called on the United States on Thursday to revoke its decision to designate Yemen s Houthi militias a foreign terrorist organization, fearing it would push the country into a large-scale famine.
UN envoy for Yemen Martin Griffiths, in a briefing to the Security Council via videoconference, condemned “in the strongest terms possible” the attack carried out by the Houthis on Aden airport last month.
"The Secretary-General is saddened by the events at the US Capitol in Washington, D.C," on Wednesday, Stephane Dujarric, Spokesman for the Secretary-General, said in a note to correspondents.
