In a joint statement Monday, Aug. 29, 2022, sixteen rights groups urged Yemen’s Houthi rebels to end their years-long siege of Taiz, the country’s third-largest city. The groups, including Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International, said in a joint statement the Houthi blockade of Taiz has severely restricted freedom of movement and impeded the flow of essential goods, medicine, and humanitarian aid to the city’s residents.
