YWU condemns violations against Palestinian women

The Yemeni Women's Union (YWU) condemned the inhuman violations against Palestinian women in Gaza Strip, calling for stopping and combating the oppression suffered by the Palestinian people in general and Palestinian women. The Union's statement, a copy of which was received by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), pointed out what most women in some countries that have been subjected to siege, aggression and disasters, especially Palestinian women in Gaza Strip, suffer from injustice, oppression, persecution, genocide, lack of security and stability. The statement stressed the need for the Palestinian people and all women of the world to enjoy human rights in a way that improves capabilities and provides opportunities for a decent living, indicating that Yemeni women have pivotal roles in facing challenges to enhance their role in sustainable development and building an interconnected society in which security and stability prevail. YWU called on Arab and international governments, organizations and communities to work to achieve security, peace and stability, empower women and build their capabilities in light of the changes and the necessity of providing them with all facilities to achieve the goals as they are the foundation of society.
