<p>We are concerned that the Baha'is are being persecuted for their religious beliefs
in Yemen, particularly in areas controlled by the Houthis and forces aligned to former
President Saleh. We strongly condemn this mistreatment and continue to work closely
with our partners including the EU to raise the issue directly with the <em>de facto
</em>authorities. The immediate release of all Baha'is in Yemen imprisoned for their
religious beliefs was a key demand in the September UN Human Rights Council Resolution,
which we supported. We will work closely with all partners to ensure its implementation.</p>
