After Biden vowed that the war in Yemen must end, a number of Democratic lawmakers have taken an initiative to request he restore the humanitarian aid in northern Yemen which was suspended in the times of Trump.
Massachusetts Senator Edward J Markey, Oregon Senator Jeff Merkley, Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen and Vermont Independent Senator Bernie Sanders wrote a letter to Secretary of State Antony Blinken and United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Acting Administrator Gloria Steele seeking reversal of the previous administrationâs decision to suspend Washingtonâs humanitarian aid in Yemen.
In March last year, the Trump administration cut off tens of millions of dollars for healthcare programs and other aid to the devastated Middle East nation, rejecting requests by humanitarian groups and some members of Congress to delay the decision as the Covid-19 pandemic swept across the region.

JNS.org – Israel’s Ambassador to the United Nations Gilad Erdan addressed the UN Security Council on Tuesday, warning member states that it was time for “an institution charged with safeguarding peace and security to begin addressing the gravest danger in the Middle East: the regime in Tehran.”
“Tomorrow, here at the UN and around the world, we will mark International Holocaust Remembrance Day and mourn the unfathomable murder of 6 million Jews. 76 years after the liberation of Auschwitz, there is another genocidal regime epitomizing the very words and actions of the Nazis,” he told the council.

“Iran does not try to hide its intention of destroying the world’s only Jewish state. Spreading anti-Semitism, denying the Holocaust and even proposing legislation calling for Israel’s destruction by the year 2041,” said Israel’s Ambassador to the United Nations Gilad Erdan.
