This statement was made to the UN Human Rights Council (HRC) 42nd session, during the Interactive dialogue (ID) with the High Commissioner’s report on Yemen. The Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom commends the Group of Eminent Experts’ (GEE) efforts to bring to light the blatant violations of International Human Rights Law and International Humanitarian Law by all parties to the conflict in Yemen. We are concerned that the Government of Yemen has not granted the GEE permission to enter the country, thereby hindering adequate access to victims and witnesses.
