EU condemns deadly attack on soldiers

20/01/2020 (Agence Europe)The spokesman for the European External Action Service condemned on Sunday 19 January the deadly attack the previous day by the Houthis on the mosque of a military camp in the western Yemeni town of Marib, killing at least 100 soldiers. “This act threatens the ongoing military de-escalation and undermines the UN-led process in the country”, the spokesman cautioned in a statement. He called on all parties to exercise restraint and engage constructively with the UN Special Envoy to end the conflict. “Yemen has an opportunity to attain peace that should not be wasted”, he stressed. He recalled that the EU would continue to support the UN in this endeavour “with all the tools at its disposal”, without giving further details. (CG)
