00:01:15May God bless your honorable times with all goodness, and welcome to your question, the second to a new episode
00:01:18within the framework of the continuous coverage of the
00:01:21Dawn of Yemen operations to restore the state
00:01:24institutions. Taiz,
00:01:27a city of will, facing the project
00:01:30of defeat. Perhaps this
00:01:32they collected from is the title
00:01:34from which we start today, for in Taiz, the story
00:01:37does not stop at shelling neighborhoods
00:01:40and targeting civilians and facilities. Behind
00:01:43the scene of suffering stands a city, a city resisting
00:01:46defeat, and fighters holding firm on the fronts,
00:01:50and a community trying or transforming
00:01:52its cohesion and will into a wall in the face
00:01:56of the Houthi militia. So, the battle of Taiz
00:02:00and the Imam's eye did not extends beyond the military field to the responsibility of the state,
00:02:03the duty of the government,
00:02:05that has increased in intensity, the role of organizations, and the position of forces,

00:02:35international path that does not we will follow them within this
00:02:39report prepared by
00:02:41colleague
00:02:43Tawfiq Abu Zeid. So, let's follow this report with you
00:02:46and then we'll start with our honorable guests in succession.
00:02:51method
00:02:58it to civilians, Taiz, which do not
00:03:03In plain sight and hearing of the world, the Houthi
00:03:06terrorist militia continues to impose its suffocating siege on Taiz, in one
00:03:10of the most brutal and cruel
00:03:13humanitarian tragedies. It did not suffice to deprive residents of the basic necessities
00:03:17of life, but its attacks extended to target
00:03:21with the lives of citizens, whether in civilians in their homes, markets, schools, and roads, without
00:03:25distinguishing between a child,
00:03:27to, meaning, why do a woman, and a man, or respecting the sanctity. It was supposed
00:03:30to be a safe haven for people. In a new crime
00:03:34added to its bloody record, the Taiz Governorate Siege Affairs Office
00:03:38announced the killing of a number of civilians, including eight
00:03:42children, as a result of the Houthi terrorist militia targeting Al-Najd Market
00:03:45in Al-Muhaf village, in Al-Qarod district, in Al-Misrak
00:03:50of incidents, but it does militias on the city does not Directorate, with a missile, according to an initial list
00:03:54UN supervision so that of victims' names. The
00:03:57militias evaded this of the siege. Some office explained that the victims were in the market to carry out their daily work and provide for their needs.
00:04:00Their livelihood, in a place they frequented
00:04:03base of seeking sustenance and to attend to their life's affairs, it then turned, due to the
00:04:07destructive shelling, into a scene of death and destruction, where the
00:04:12and therefore this dreams of innocents are scattered, and from which rise the cries of loss and pain. What
00:04:16these safe corridors so that aspect of the siege, which is this crime is more cruel than a
00:04:18negotiating leverage market, frequented by people searching for a livelihood,
00:04:21turning into a scene of a massacre that claims the lives of children
00:04:25and civilians? And what
00:04:27Coordination must also be made with sin did those little ones commit for their lives
00:04:32that by pressuring to end with a missile that does not distinguish between one who carries a dream and one who carries the needs of his family, in
00:04:35a tragedy that summarizes the extent of the brutality with which
00:04:39revolt and become restless against
00:04:40narrowing the the militia confronts children and innocent women,
00:04:42and exposes its blatant disregard for civilian lives
00:04:46they have now imposed a siege and the right to life?
00:04:48the lives of many And this crime is not an isolated incident or a passing aggression, but
00:04:52a new episode in a long series of continuous Houthi
00:04:56violations and crimes against the people of
00:04:59Taiz, who face shelling, siege,
00:05:02and deprivation amidst repeated targeting of residential
00:05:05neighborhoods and civilian facilities and the confiscation
00:05:08of life, so that the city remains a witness to one of
00:05:11the most heinous images of human suffering
00:05:15created
00:05:18And in the face of this human bleeding and continuous
00:05:21crimes, international silence is no longer acceptable, just as condemnation statements are no longer
00:05:24sufficient to stop the Houthi killing machine. Protecting
00:05:28civilians and holding perpetrators of these crimes
00:05:31accountable and lifting the siege imposed on Taiz
00:05:34is a legal
00:05:38delay.
00:05:54So, welcome back, dear viewers, for
00:05:58I am joined via video call
00:06:02by Mr. Abdul Wasea Al-Fadaki,
00:06:04journalist and political analyst. Mr. Abdul Wasea, good evening.
00:06:08Welcome.
00:06:15Yes, Mr. Wasea, do you hear me?
00:06:18I hear you, I hear you. Do you hear me? Yes, welcome, and good evening.
00:06:21Well, Mr. Abdul Wasea, if we talk,
00:06:25and we are talking about Taiz under
00:06:28Houthi fire and the targeting of civilians
00:06:31and facilities,
00:06:34and civilian targets as well, meaning continuous
00:06:38violations. In your opinion, how can we interpret the Houthi
00:06:42escalation against residential neighborhoods
00:06:45and civilian facilities in Taiz? What are
00:06:48the military and political
00:06:51objectives, in your opinion, behind targeting
00:06:53civilians?
00:06:56Greetings to you and the esteemed viewers.
00:07:00As for the Houthi militias, they
00:07:03believe that every target in areas
00:07:07controlled by the legitimate government is a legitimate target and is considered
00:07:10by them a military target,
00:07:12whether this target is a hospital or a school
00:07:16or a residential neighborhood or a popular market.
00:07:20All these targets they see as targets
00:07:24that can be targeted, and they will use
00:07:28all means and all weapons, whether
00:07:31ballistic missile shelling or artillery
00:07:33and so on from heavy weapons.
00:07:37We must consider that the crime
00:07:40that occurred in
00:07:43market in Al-Makh'af in
00:07:46Al-Misrak Directorate, considering that this
00:07:49is not isolated from the rest of the crimes, to look at
00:07:52the place. The targeted place is a popular market,
00:07:56and this popular market is considered a symbol of life
00:07:59as it indicates the regularity of life in times
00:08:02of war, and this popular market also represents an economic
00:08:06symbol and a social symbol, and therefore
00:08:09targeting such a market and also targeting markets.
00:08:13There was a market targeted by the Houthi militias in Muqbala
00:08:16with a drone, and I expect that
00:08:19the Houthi militias will continue to target popular
00:08:22markets. They want to
00:08:26use more tools and means to impose the siege,
00:08:29meaning that if these militias besiege the city
00:08:33from its four sides, they will also besiege even
00:08:37the residents who live in areas
00:08:40controlled by the legitimate authority. So that
00:08:43the citizen feels that going to the mosque, going
00:08:46to school, going to
00:08:49the market is considered a deadly risk, and therefore
00:08:53this represents a restriction on people's lives and people's
00:08:56movements. The siege imposed by
00:08:59the Houthi
00:09:02only mean that roads are closed, and we must
00:09:05focus on the other side
00:09:08journalists and media professionals discuss
00:09:11the Houthi militias' prevention
00:09:14of food, medicine, water, and humanitarian
00:09:17aid from entering, and this is an aspect of the siege that is no less
00:09:20important than the rest of the
00:09:24aspects of the siege that should be focused on. There is another hidden
00:09:29shelling that the Houthi
00:09:32militias practice against residential neighborhoods, which is
00:09:35another type of siege, the internal siege on the movements
00:09:39and transfers of citizens, in addition to an economic siege.
00:09:43Targeting markets has an economic dimension
00:09:46that affects the lives of residents because this will lead
00:09:50to
00:09:52sources through which citizens
00:09:56can obtain their food. It will also restrict
00:10:01vendors who carry out their work, even
00:10:05for a few hours. It will also restrict
00:10:07the access to or how to obtain or ways
00:10:11to obtain what is available in the city
00:10:14of food and medicine because this will open
00:10:17the door to monopoly, it will also open the door
00:10:21to rising prices of goods, and therefore targeting.
00:10:25represents another image of the Houthi
00:10:29militias' crimes in order to push
00:10:32residents to stay in their places or
00:10:35stay in their homes and also not even
00:10:39normalize life in the liberated areas, and also
00:10:42push residents to flee, and it
00:10:45wants to push, especially the areas that
00:10:49are difficult for it, such as Sabr areas,
00:10:52because they host a popular incubator resisting the Houthi
00:10:56militias, and therefore it wants to push people to
00:10:59go to other places so that it can use
00:11:02the policy of collective punishment and the scorched earth policy.
00:11:06And therefore, also in addition to that, I want to point out a very
00:11:09important point, yes, which is that the Houthi
00:11:12militias have, with this siege,
00:11:16also imposed
00:11:19restrictions on the movement of
00:11:22feel safe leaving his home. Here, life has lost, meaning
00:11:26we hardly know that the city of Taiz
00:11:29is as it was before, when there was movement.
00:11:33Schools stopped fearing targeting by
00:11:36the Houthi militias. Universities also stopped, and this
00:11:39is one of the results of the direct siege.
00:11:42Life has become almost frozen, and it has become frozen in
00:11:46this city, and this is a reflection or
00:11:49a product of the Houthi militias' siege
00:11:53that they impose on this steadfast and patient city.
00:11:57Yes. Well,
00:11:59in your opinion, Mr. Abdul Wasea, to what extent do these continuous
00:12:03attacks reflect a systematic strategy
00:12:07by this militia to subjugate Taiz
00:12:11and break the will of its residents? And what
00:12:14makes Taiz one of the Yemeni cities most exposed
00:12:17to such violations and such a long and severe
00:12:21siege? Usually, the Houthi
00:12:25militias use the policy of collective punishment. Note, my dear
00:12:28brother, when they besieged Dhamar
00:12:32for six months, a suffocating siege, and they
00:12:35used the policy of collective punishment and forced
00:12:40flee and displaced them from their homes, from their lands,
00:12:44and in every military advance they had
00:12:47in the northern regions, they always used the siege first,
00:12:51considering that the siege represents for them
00:12:55a means of military means to subjugate the population. And therefore, here in the city
00:12:59of Taiz, when these militias failed to break
00:13:02the steadfastness of the National Army and the Popular
00:13:05Resistance, they always resort to terrorizing the popular
00:13:08base and the policy of subjugating this city as a form of
00:13:12collective punishment because they want to use this
00:13:16as a means of
00:13:19or a method of negotiation so that
00:13:23they push the authorities in Taiz and the legitimate
00:13:26government to use or
00:13:29compel this legitimate authority to
00:13:32make concessions in its favor, political concessions,
00:13:36military concessions, so that it preserves the lives of its population.
00:13:39It realizes that the legitimate authority
00:13:42is concerned
00:13:46areas under its control or areas that
00:13:49are still under Houthi control, and therefore it
00:13:53uses the humanitarian dimension as a military
00:13:56tactic to try to gain political
00:14:00leverage, and the proof of that is that the siege
00:14:03of Taiz is not new. We have been
00:14:0712 years and this city is under a strict siege,
00:14:10and now they have tightened the siege, and the Taiz file
00:14:13was on the negotiation table throughout the past 12
00:14:17years. It was part of the Stockholm Agreement, and the Houthi
00:14:22humanitarian entitlement, which means that it
00:14:26should not be a means of punishment or
00:14:30a military means through which the Houthi militias
00:14:33achieve any political gains or any economic gains, and this
00:14:37file was postponed because the Houthi militias
00:14:40want to gain
00:14:43from their siege on civilians, and therefore they also
00:14:47want to incite
00:14:50the popular base against the National Army and the Popular
00:14:54Resistance. This is what they believe,
00:14:57the popular base, they will push
00:15:01the popular base to
00:15:04the legitimate authority, but they gain nothing
00:15:07from this but the opposite. The more the Houthi
00:15:10militias increase their pressure on this city, the more
00:15:14the residents here cling to the National
00:15:17Army and the Popular Resistance, and the more the popular
00:15:20base rallies around the legitimate authority, and the more
00:15:23these militias inflame the hearts of Yemenis
00:15:27and greatly inspire them to defend the
00:15:30Republic and to go to the fighting fronts
00:15:34to protect the Republic and the revolution, and
00:15:37also to lift the siege on this city. So, the Houthi
00:15:42pay attention to the humanitarian aspect, whether in
00:15:46areas under the control of the legitimate government or even in those areas.
00:15:50Notice that they starve the residents there, and
00:15:53through this systematic starvation, they want
00:15:56to compel the residents and narrow their sources of livelihood
00:15:59to only one door, which is the door of going to
00:16:03the authorities or going to the fighting fronts.
00:16:06And therefore, the process
00:16:10the areas that are still under
00:16:13leave no option for families but to receive food baskets
00:16:16that come through them, and they stipulate
00:16:20to those families that they must send their sons to the
00:16:24fighting fronts, and therefore the humanitarian
00:16:26aspect for them is a military weapon they use
00:16:30whether in the areas that are still
00:16:34the areas they besiege, such as the city of
00:16:37Taiz, in order to achieve political
00:16:41gains, economic gains, through which they gain
00:16:44from the starvation of Yemenis and this
00:16:47collective punishment, and this starvation policy is not
00:16:51strange to the imams' approach. This is an extension of the imams' approach.
00:16:54Let's read the history of the imams and how they
00:16:58dealt with the livelihood of Yemenis. The Imam's
00:17:01warehouses were full of grains,
00:17:05and it was forbidden to dispose. of those grains that
00:17:09farmers and also collected from citizens and stored
00:17:13them, and they were not distributed to the poor
00:17:17and the hungry, who were in the millions during the imams' rule,
00:17:21and history has proven and affirmed, and historians
00:17:24have affirmed and proven historical evidence
00:17:27that makes one cringe, when citizens were falling
00:17:31dead from hunger in the streets of Ibb city in the 1940s,
00:17:35and also in Hajjah,
00:17:38flinch, but rather he said his famous saying,
00:17:42"Whoever died is a martyr, and whoever lived
00:17:45as he thinks, and whoever lived is meaning, as he says,
00:17:49and whoever lived is meaning, drowned,
00:17:52or meaning, as historians
00:17:56proved those phrases that they recorded in
00:17:59their historical books. Yes.
00:18:02Yes, yes. Well, stay with us, Mr. Abdul Wasea Al-Fadaki. Also
00:18:06joining us via video call is Ms.
00:18:09Huda Al-Sarari, Head of the
00:18:13Defense for Rights and Freedoms Foundation. Ms. Huda, good
00:18:16evening, welcome. Good evening
00:18:19to you and your esteemed guest, and also to all the viewers.
00:18:23May God bless you, welcome. Of course,
00:18:26we spoke with Mr. Abdul Wasea about
00:18:29the Houthi violations in
00:18:32stop. He also spoke about military
00:18:35and political objectives underlying the targeting of civilians, especially
00:18:39he talked about how this is a systematic
00:18:43strategy to subjugate Taiz and break
00:18:46the will of its residents after a long siege.
00:18:49Meaning, he spoke
00:18:52recently about what makes Taiz one of the Yemeni cities
00:18:56most exposed to these violations, and I am
00:18:59truly keen to hear from you in this regard, in addition
00:19:05these violations and aggressions against Taiz continue
00:19:08without
00:19:10deterrent international measures? Perhaps this is a good point, but
00:19:14also, as you are the
00:19:17head of the foundation, meaning, without
00:19:20deterrent international measures, where does the international community's
00:19:22responsibility stand regarding
00:19:24these violations?
00:19:27First, starting, the whole world witnesses
00:19:31the grave violations that amount to war crimes
00:19:34in Taiz Governorate. Yes, Taiz has
00:19:37a very large popular
00:19:41civilians, and it has a large population
00:19:43density. Secondly, there is no popular
00:19:47support for the Houthis, systematic
00:19:51targeting that the Houthi militia uses
00:19:53with all oppressive means, including
00:19:56ballistic missile shelling, artillery, and drone
00:20:00aircraft, to punish civilians, is to break the will
00:20:04and defiance of the National Resistance and the Army,
00:20:08the National and Popular Resistance within Taiz Governorate.
00:20:11We know that everyone in Taiz is ready to defend
00:20:15their land and city, despite the large mobilization
00:20:18carried out by the Houthi militias with all types of weapons. Therefore,
00:20:23on civilians, so no food supplies enter
00:20:27except by the will of the Houthis. Also, Taiz
00:20:30is facing an environmental disaster also as a result
00:20:33of the methods used by the Houthi militias.
00:20:37by preventing water from entering the city in Taiz,
00:20:41not allowing ambulance vehicles to evacuate
00:20:45the wounded, and also hospitals
00:20:48are threatened with closure.
00:20:51Including the Red Cross and Doctors Without Borders,
00:20:55they send humanitarian
00:20:57appeals to the international community to lift
00:21:00the siege or to establish safe corridors for
00:21:04the entry of medicines and medical solutions, especially
00:21:08for kidney failure patients in kidney
00:21:11dialysis centers and for cancer patients, and also for children.
00:21:18water. An environmental disaster due to not
00:21:21transporting garbage out of Taiz.
00:21:25Many violations that the Houthi militias
00:21:28systematically use to break
00:21:31the will and also subjugate civilian residents and surrender to the entry
00:21:35of the militias and the surrender of Taiz and the city. We also know
00:21:38that Taiz contains most
00:21:41of the displaced people who were displaced during the recent
00:21:45military escalation, in addition to the military
00:21:47escalation that occurred in previous years.
00:21:55This is regarding what makes the governorate the most
00:21:58targeted. But
00:22:01part of the question is, in the face of all these
00:22:05systematic violations and crimes
00:22:07that amount to war crimes, what is the role
00:22:10of the international community and what is the role of the organizations
00:22:14affiliated with the United Nations in shedding light on such
00:22:17violations? In truth, we
00:22:21cannot suffice with appeals or repeated statements issued
00:22:25by organizations or by
00:22:28diplomatic missions inside Yemen. But unfortunately, crimes
00:22:32here are repeated, and they are directly linked
00:22:35to the absence of impunity, and I believe that in my opinion,
00:22:38these are the most serious problems that contributed to the continuation
00:22:42of violations in Yemen, especially by the Houthi
00:22:45militias when they commit grave violations against
00:22:48civilians. During the past years
00:22:52and even in the current military escalation
00:22:55it does not result in any investigations into the incidents, nor
00:22:58independent investigations, nor identification of those responsible, nor
00:23:02deterrent national or even international legal
00:23:06actions, and therefore it allows these violations to be repeated.
00:23:09Taiz has witnessed
00:23:12incidents of shelling, sniping, and targeting
00:23:17planting landmines in roads, and also targeting
00:23:20civilian facilities. Despite that, we see an ineffective
00:23:25ensure accountability for those responsible for these violations.
00:23:28Also, dealing, meaning one of the most dangerous things that happens
00:23:32is the international community's accustomedness to scenes of killing and destruction
00:23:36in Yemen, as if the falling of civilians has become a predicted
00:23:40matter or a natural cost for the continuation of the conflict,
00:23:43and this, honestly, is legally and humanely unacceptable
00:23:47because international humanitarian law specifically
00:23:51established or set a limit for the protection of civilians
00:23:55during wars and did not make the protection of civilians an optional
00:23:58matter, whether it was related to militias that rebelled
00:24:01against the state or even other forces. Also, the continuation of targeting
00:24:05civilian areas and imposing restrictions on the movement
00:24:08of residents and basic supplies
00:24:11raises serious concerns about the use
00:24:14of civilian suffering as a means of pressure in the context
00:24:17of armed conflict, and this is what we are trying to draw the attention
00:24:21of international organizations and also
00:24:24countries that are concerned
00:24:28with the Yemeni file. And therefore, also one of
00:24:31the most important reasons for its continuation is the weakness of the
00:24:35documentation and international accountability mechanism. It is true that there is documentation
00:24:40not rise to draw the attention of the international
00:24:43community to the extent of the violations and crimes that occur, especially in
00:24:46Taiz and other areas. Now Taiz is no longer
00:24:50the only target, but there are other areas.
00:24:53Airports have also become targeted, the city of Aden,
00:24:56and perhaps the military escalation may develop,
00:24:59and other areas may fall under Houthi control,
00:25:03and therefore everyone becomes a target for these terrorist
00:25:06and bloody militias.
00:25:08Yes, well, Ms. Huda, also,
00:25:12you spoke about very important
00:25:16points about how international
00:25:20organizations, perhaps,
00:25:22with witnessing and following what is happening
00:25:25in Taiz from violations, the matter becomes
00:25:28routine, meaning, and this is a serious indicator. Meaning,
00:25:32in your opinion, have the organizations, to say
00:25:35local organizations, the media, activists,
00:25:38humanitarian organizations locally, for example,
00:25:42succeeded in conveying the reality of the humanitarian
00:25:45suffering in Taiz to the regional decision-making center
00:25:49and, let's say, also, for example, the gap
00:25:52between the extent of humanitarian needs in Taiz
00:25:56and the interventions by these organizations? How
00:25:59can we work to reduce it as well?
00:26:04In fact, local organizations
00:26:07have nothing left but to convey the situation as it is,
00:26:10documenting violations. We also have important national
00:26:14mechanisms that document the incidents
00:26:18and crimes committed by the Houthi militias, in addition
00:26:20to the international sanctions committee. However, we need
00:26:24resolute international action regarding the crimes
00:26:27that occur daily and, in a
00:26:31repeated manner, against civilians, in addition to the strict siege on
00:26:34the city of Taiz and the lack of permission
00:26:37to establish safe corridors for the continuous entry of aid
00:26:41and in a way that serves the needs
00:26:44of citizens and the large population density present
00:26:47there. The international organizations, especially the local
00:26:50ones, have not fallen short in conveying the situation, but
00:26:54unfortunately, they remain as long as they have
00:26:59below
00:27:03reach the provision of, meaning, they cannot provide
00:27:07humanitarian aid, meaning what can they do, meaning
00:27:10as a result of the decrease in international support and program support,
00:27:14local organizations have now suffered a shortage in providing
00:27:18services and humanitarian aid to citizens. Also,
00:27:21the siege does not allow the entry of this aid, whether through
00:27:24the Red Cross or through Doctors Without Borders or international
00:27:28organizations. Therefore, international organizations are now suffering
00:27:31like local organizations in the face of the crisis inside
00:27:34Taiz. Therefore, today, the United Nations, with its organizations,
00:27:38has a great responsibility
00:27:41towards
00:27:43civilians inside Taiz Governorate, an ethical
00:27:47and legal responsibility directly due to
00:27:50the commission of violations, also a political, ethical,
00:27:54and institutional responsibility towards the international community,
00:27:58and it must be dealt with seriously.
00:28:01We cannot also
00:28:03blame the local side for all that
00:28:07happens, meaning from a shortage in supplies.
00:28:10We are asking today for an expansion of humanitarian
00:28:14of programs that work to reach and assist civilians.
00:28:18We shed light and convey
00:28:22shortage in humanitarian supplies and UN
00:28:26interventions for civilians. Also, today,
00:28:29Taiz is facing a humanitarian
00:28:31catastrophe due to the closure of some
00:28:37centers. Today, the Red Cross ambulance cannot retrieve
00:28:40the bodies of the wounded, or, meaning, two weeks ago,
00:28:44an ambulance was shelled, and its driver was killed,
00:28:47and the companion was injured, and, meaning, mothers carried
00:28:50the bodies of their sons and loved ones on
00:28:54their shoulders for burial, and therefore no aid can
00:28:57enter to provide
00:29:00and therefore it has become essential to allocate
00:29:04safe corridors for the entry of humanitarian aid
00:29:07corridors so that they are not used by the militias to transport
00:29:11weapons and equipment, and thus impose more
00:29:14siege. Who is now concerned with opening such corridors?
00:29:17How can we reach the opening of these
00:29:21corridors now? The United
00:29:24Nations, the international community, and international organizations
00:29:28that are content with issuing statements
00:29:31are the ones that should come forward to impose an obligation on
00:29:35the Houthi militias to open these safe corridors and place
00:29:38civilian oversight over them by active civil
00:29:42society organizations inside and outside Taiz governorate
00:29:46in order to help and coordinate the entry of humanitarian
00:29:49aid and monitor the necessary needs
00:29:52of citizens under international
00:29:56weapons are not brought in. Because now, when
00:30:00roads are opened momentarily
00:30:03and temporarily, the Houthi
00:30:06militias are allowed to smuggle weapons, and soldiers enter
00:30:10alongside civilians into areas that they have not
00:30:13controlled. Therefore, the United Nations must impose oversight on
00:30:19Houthi weapons, soldiers, or equipment do not enter,
00:30:22and thus it becomes a double-edged sword for civilians
00:30:25inside the city.
00:30:29local organizations outside
00:30:32the city of Taiz and inside the city of Taiz in order
00:30:36to determine the extent of civilian needs and what
00:30:40those needs are, and to deliver them to those affected. Well, Ms.
00:30:43Hoda, who obliges, who can oblige the United Nations to
00:30:47do that? The United Nations now contents itself with statements and resolutions. We have
00:30:50started to say that it looks at what
