Houthis say 43 detained UN staff to face trial over Israeli attack: Report
The local United Nations staff will stand trial on suspicion of links to the air strike that assassinated top Houthi leaders in August, the acting foreign minister of Yemen’s Houthi government, Abdulwahid Abu Ras, has told the Reuters news agency.
In August, the prime minister of Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi-run government and several other ministers were killed in an Israeli strike on the capital Sanaa, in the first such attack to kill senior officials.
The United Nations has repeatedly rejected Houthi accusations that UN staff or operations in Yemen were involved.
“The steps taken by the security agencies were carried out under full judicial supervision. The public prosecution was kept informed step by step with every action taken,” Abu Ras said in an interview with Reuters.
At least 59 UN personnel are being held by the Houthis, according to the organisation.
