Moreover, the security inside Yemen was threatened, several thousand people killed and tens of thousands have been wounded by directly fight and indirectly through lack of access to food, health services, and infrastructure and over 20 million people are needing assistance and aids. As a non- permanent member of the UNSC, Vietnam also shared the concern over the humanitarian situation in Yemen, and attacks against civilians and civil infrastructure facilities and we also restraint and facilitate the UN’s humanitarian activities in which we offer support as in aids and finance to Yemen through the World Food Programme. However, in providing aids from the United Nations member countries to Yemen, the delegates also have worried the deliver methods to Yemen since the Houthi is now controlling the country in which the Houthi could place barrier or would even lead to arm conflict on the necessities being deliver to help restraint humanitarian crisis. As President of the United Nations Security Council in January, during which the organization adopted a resolution to extend the mandate of the United Nations Mission to support the Hodeidah Agreement (UNMHA) in which we have recommend all delegates to support this agreement since the mission is a good resolution to diffuse tensions and address incidents that occur in Yemen.
