"Yemeni people are living in a very tough condition and lasting war and surrender has led to sever famine in the country,” Ghasemi said noting the recent developments in the country and the intensified humanitarian crisis.

He urged all international organizations to increase efforts to help delivery of humanitarian aid to Yemenis regarding the outbreak of cholera and other diseases.
