THE UK VETOES UN INITIATIVE TO STOP ASSAULT ON THE YEMENI PORT OF HODEIDAH AND AVERT FAMINE.

14 June 2018 – In a closed session of the UN security council, the UK joined the United States and France in making it clear it would veto any attempt to halt the military assault on the Yemeni port of Hodeidah, launched two days earlier by the U.A.E. and Saudi Arabia.  However international humanitarian organizations warned that unless conflict was avoided, the Yemeni famine, which had already made 22 million reliant on food aid, was likely to worsen, with catastrophic consequences for the country’s population.
