Today, on the International Day for Women in Diplomacy, #UNMHA celebrates the strength, resilience, and leadership of women driving peace forward in #Yemen and around the world. 

This June marks one year since the arbitrary detention of dozens of personnel from the United Nations, national and international non-governmental organizations (NGOs), civil society organizations and diplomatic missions by the Houthi de facto authorities in Yemen.

I strongly condemn the death in detention on 10 February of a World Food Programme colleague who had been arbitrarily detained by the Houthi de facto authorities since 23 January 2025.
