Human Rights Watch calls for an end to the deportation of Yemeni immigrants from Saudi Arabia.
Emphasizing the crisis in the lives of Yemenis, Human Rights Watch called on Saudi officials to stop expelling Yemeni migrant workers in Saudi Arabia.
Human Rights Watch called on Saudi officials to suspend the decision to expel the Yemenis and allow them to remain in Saudi Arabia, Human Rights Watch reported.
The organization said in a statement on Tuesday that the deportation of Yemenis to Saudi Arabia began in July 2021, which may force them to return to the humanitarian crisis in Yemen.
Saudi media reported that the “strong” platform, run by the Saudi Ministry of Human Resources, issued a statement in July on new regulations requiring companies to restrict their workers to certain nationalities.
According to Human Rights Watch, Yemeni workers who are unable to find another employer for their supporters will be forced to leave the country or face deportation, which will pose a huge threat to Yemeni lives.
In this regard, “Afrah Nasser”, a Yemeni researcher at Human Rights Watch, stated that the Saudi authorities are actually deporting and threatening to repatriate hundreds, perhaps thousands, of Yemeni specialists, which is exacerbating the humanitarian crisis in Yemen.
