The Iran-backed Houthi insurgents of Yemen raided a United Nations compound in the occupied capital of Sanaa on Saturday and took 20 employees hostage, the latest of several mass kidnappings the Houthis have conducted against U.N. personnel.
U.N. spokesman Jean Alam told the Associated Press (AP) on Sunday that 20 U.N. staffers are being held prisoner at the compound in Sanaa, including five Yemeni nationals and 15 international personnel. Another 11 staffers were released by the Houthis after questioning.
Alam said the U.N. was in contact with the Houthis, and unspecified “other parties,” to “resolve this serious situation as swiftly as possible, end the detention of all personnel, and restore full control” over U.N. facilities in Sanaa.
Another U.N. official told AP the prisoners included employees of the World Food Program (WFP), UNICEF, and the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs. The second official said the Houthis seized phones and computers from the U.N. compound, in addition to taking staffers prisoner. more here

If so, send SpecOps in there to rescue them, and only them.
The other nationalities, they’re on their own with their own countries.
