The United Nations Secretary-General’s Envoy to Yemen, Martin Griffiths has on Sunday condemned the Saudi-led coalition airstrikes on prisoners of war in Dhamar prison.

Griffiths, in a joint statement with Lise Grande, Humanitarian Coordinator for Yemen, called for an investigation into the bombing on prisoners of war, stressing that a justice should be achieved.

“Sunday’s bombing is a tragedy, the human cost of this war is unbearable. We need it to stop. Yemenis deserve a peaceful future. Today’s tragedy reminds us that Yemen cannot wait,” the statement said.

Mr. Griffiths said “the only way to end the killing and the misery in Yemen, is to end the conflict.”
