1) the 45 Jews are in a hotel, these 400 villagers are sleeping in a field
2) the UN, as bad as it is, at least gives some status to Somali refugees in Yemen
3) these internally displaced persons have no official status as Ibb officials are blocking the investigation
4) thousands of refugees in Saada who fled their homes to avoid the violence are also internal refugees

from al-Shawa: The executive director of HOOD Organization, Khalid al-Ansi threatened to raise the case of al-Jaashin displaced people to UN.

“As a result of authorities’ absence toward al-Jaashin displaced case, we will resort to all legal means guaranteed by the constitution and international conventions approved by the Yemeni government” added al-Ansi .

“We may be enforced to complain to UN” He said in a statement to Alsahwa

He warned of pushing the displaced people to demand the UNHCR political asylum.

Al-Anisi considered al-Jaashin events as evidence that the country powers are very weak.

He also expressed sorrow of parliament committee’s failure formed to investigate the case. For his part, the parliamentarian, Sakhr al-Wajeh affirmed that the reasons behind the failure of the committee are that the local authorities of Ibb governorate rejected cooperation with the committee as well as other reasons .

Meanwhile the parliament witnessed yesterday talk tensions between some parliament’s members and the head of the committee ,Sheikh Mohammad al-Shaif as he attacked some parliamentarians.
