He noted, however, that this commitment has been undermined by obstruction and abuses by the Houthi militias, which have prevented humanitarian assistance from reaching those in need, closed the offices of international organizations providing food and medical assistance, detained their staff, brought fabricated charges against them, and subjected them to proceedings that lacked basic guarantees of a fair trial and the right to defense.<\/p>\n<p>For his part, Acting WFP Executive Director Carl Skau reviewed the existing cooperation between the Yemeni government and the WFP, along with the organization\u2019s key humanitarian programs and interventions in Yemen.
