A Yemeni rights association is demanding urgent disclosure of the fate of all individuals who have been forcibly disappeared as Ramadan approaches. The association urged the government to prioritize this issue, emphasizing the need for disclosure before any other procedures are initiated.

The call comes amid reports of secret prisons that are reportedly empty, which has instilled fear and anxiety among families of the disappeared. These families find themselves in a dire situation filled with uncertainty about the fates of their loved ones, which has exacerbated their suffering and heightened their worries. Many families have been living for over a decade under the burden of psychological and social trauma related to the disappearance of their relatives.

Furthermore, the association has called on Saudi Arabia, which supports the Yemeni government in efforts to stabilize the country, to also focus on the issue of the forcibly vanished. They stress the importance of resolving these cases to alleviate the distress experienced by families and to bring closure to the long-standing suffering associated with enforced disappearances in Yemen.
