person in Yemen …..Needs your voice
As you go on with your safe life, you have to remember that tens of millions face the fate of death
When wars break out, a human finds himself vulnerable in the face of his cruelest and most brutal behavior ever. This is the reality of civilians in Yemen who found themselves, during seven years of the war in the country with its internal and external dimensions, defenseless and forgotten, battling the most difficult ordeal in their history. In the middle of a stifling crisis, figures speak on the scale of the disaster and the wasted humanitarian cost; there are approximately 20.7 million people in need of assistance, of whom 16 million are unable to meet their food needs, 13 million of them suffering from severe food insecurity, 15.4 million people have no access to WASH services (8.6 million people don't have access to water due to the conflict), and 49 percent of the population remains without adequate health care. In addition, at least 6.4 million people have been displaced from their homes to other areas within Yemen or neighboring countries. While all parties to the armed conflict in Yemen continued their grave violations of human rights, many of which may be considered war crimes. Many lost their lives due to the war (either by armed conflict or human crises); The statistics indicate that there are more than 330 thousand victims, most of them from Civilians, tens of thousands wounded, and an average of 8 children are killed or injured every day. In addition to that, the catastrophic damage to infrastructure and medical, health, and educational facilities and centers that have been directly or indirectly targeted.
To the world conscience :
They get involved in the war in a way that cannot be accepted and capitulation to it. That is why we made a promise to the Yemeni, who is stuck between the fangs and claws of war, death, and hunger, that we will not stop at wishful limits and we will not let go of our hands, been broken because of the distressing and most painful reality. That is why, in the name of #peace and life, we address to all the peoples of the world our biased call to humanity alone and the right of people to live in peace in solidarity with the human being in Yemen, in preference to the choices of life, the continuation of hope, the establishment of peace, and salvation from the reality of death, deprivation and successive violations, because we feel that this is the only way for the world to help us restore our right to Life in safety, peace and dignity and the right of our children to enjoy safe family life and to offer them a future in which mothers do not fear loss for their children.
Let our message all be directed to the international, regional, and national decision-makers, to stop the war that brought us to a lonely reality and find peaceful alternatives to achieve their goals. Everyone should remember as they practice their safe lives that there are tens of millions of people in Yemen facing a horrible amount of death, the effects of which are growing on them every hour.
