Dr. Mona
Hejres, a member of the Arab Federation for Human Rights (AFHR) and head of
Together for Human Rights, expressed that women had faced human
rights crimes including killing, torture, arbitrary arrest and detention, and
use of excessive force during the revolution that drove Saleh out of power. Houthi
militia and Saleh group are to blame for the murders, forced disappearances, and
kidnappings. On top of this, the people
are deprived of the basic educational and health services. To help correct this treatment, Dr. Mona
Hejres has called upon the international community to act on their responsibilities
to help protect the Yemeni people. She also appealed to the UN Security Council
to enforce its resolutions on Yemen and ensure protection, safety and security
for its people, and particularly women.
