Southern NGOs Demand Questioning of Minister of Defense and Governor of Shabwa About Violations of Their Troops in Azzan
[su_label type=”info”]SMA News – Shabwa – Exclusive[/su_label][su_spacer size=”10″][su_dropcap]I[/su_dropcap]n a suspicious oppressing situation, governmental armed forces opened live fire on civilian protesters who were peacefully protesting in Azzan – Shabwa, on October 3rd, 2019 to demand protection of their lives and contain security breach in the governorate. Unfortunately, this led to killing and injuring several citizens.
Southern NGOs condemn and denounce these acts of military troops against peaceful civilians and consider them as mass killing against all national, international, ethical and humanitarian laws and values. We demand arresting those who committed them and punishing them.
Southern NGOs think that this oprresive attitude of the governmental military is a serious escalation with negative consequences that will create more tension in the south. This will explode the military situation again. Therefore, military commandership represented by the minister of defense and governor of Shabwa should assume full responsibility for these acts. We also demand the Arab Coalition to protect the southern people and contain this crime before being escalated. We also demand immediate transfer of northern military camps to battlefields against Al-Houthi militias.
We remind these military governmental troops that their battel is against Al-Houthis who occupied their cities and villages, not with the south.
