The Houthis impede the movement of people and the delivery of humanitarian aid, ”TASS quotes a statement from the head of the press service of the State Department, Ned Price.
He noted that the Houthis are aggravating the dire humanitarian situation and forcing Yemenis to leave their homes.
“The US is calling on the Houthis to immediately allow safe passage for civilians, the wounded, and the delivery of aid needed to save lives,” Price added.
