Iran condemns US strikes on Yemen, including Migrant Detention Cente: FM

Tehran, Apr 29 (UNI) Iran categorically condemns US strikes on Yemen, in particular the strike on the African migrant detention centre in the city of Sadah, the Iranian Foreign Ministry said.
On Monday, the civil defence service in northern Yemen said that 68 people were killed and 47 were injured as a result of US airstrikes on a migrant detention centre in northwestern Yemen. The Yemeni Interior Ministry accused the United States of committing a war crime due to the bombing of the migrant centre, where 115 people were being held.
"[Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman] Ismail Baghaei categorically condemned the US strikes carried out last night on various regions of Yemen, in particular the strike on the detention centre for African migrants in the city of Sadah, which resulted in the death and injury of more than a hundred innocent people," the ministry said on Telegram on Monday.
At the same time, the UN's International Organization for Migration (IOM) has called on all parties to the conflict in Yemen to fully comply with international law.
"It is imperative that all efforts are made to avoid harm to civilians and to protect those most vulnerable in these challenging circumstances," the organization said.
On March 15, US President Donald Trump ordered the military action against the Houthis after they renewed attacks on Israel-linked ships in the Red Sea in response to the blockade of the Gaza Strip. The Houthis' leader, Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, said earlier in April that the US had conducted over 900 airstrikes in Yemen in a month.
