In a letter to the UN Secretary General, Ban Ki Moon, the Houthis said, "We want to emphasize the grave and tragic situation that comes in the light of the continued Saudi blatant aggression on our country and our people."

"We look forward to your active humanitarian role...to put an end to the Saudi aggression against our people without any justification or reason," the Houthi's foreign relations officer, Hassan al-Ezzi in the letter.
