Shura Council: Coalition efforts will restore security in Yemen

Manama, Apr. 24 (BNA): The Shura Council has affirmed that after the Operation Decisive Storm has successfully achieved its objectives, Arab coalition launched the "Operation Restoring Hope" in Yemen, which reflects the regional awareness that political and humanitarian processes should go hand in hand with the military operation. This will ensure the return of stability to Yemen and deter foreign support to extremist Houthi militias in order to reach a political system that is agreed upon by all Yemenis through comprehensive national dialogue. In a statement issued today, the Shura Council expressed confidence that the joint efforts of the coalition and international community will restore security and stability to brotherly Yemen, and protect the Yemenis from the painful events that had gripped Yemen. The Shura Council confirmed that the Security Council’s resolution, the GCC Initiative and the outcome of Yemeni National Dialogue will, together, create a solid basis to combat terrorism and reconstruct Yemen. The Council lauded the directives of His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa in coordination with Royal Charity Organisation (RCO) to send relief aid to the Yemeni people, a kind gesture that reflects Bahrain’s supportive stances towards Yemen and the region’s security, and commitment towards brotherly countries, praying to Allah Almighty to protect Yemen and restore its security and stability.
