All countries who signed and ratified the 1948 UN convention of Genocide (General Assembly resolution 260 A) are by definition of UN charter OBLIGED to do what ever means necessary to stop the ongoing genocide.

The text of the declaration is clear, so is the 72 pages report declaring Israel actions in Gaza as an act of genocide.
But so far, not a single county has done anything to react on this.

      sadly true. but Yemen was not a signatory of the Genocide convention.

      their resistance against Israel has been going on since the fist day of the genocide, like Hezbollah, they are paying a heavy price for their actions

        I fully agree, but Yemen has ratified the convention, it’s in dark green in the posted image.

        Also, we should remember that states complicit with the genocide (USA, UK, Australia, Canada…) started a war against Yemen to stop them from exercising their obligation to try to protect a nation under genocide.

          The current government of Yemen was never allowed to represent them at UN, the country that is in UN is the Saudi puppet regime with no control over it.

          But other than that, you are absolutely right.

          The same with Hezbollah, Iraqi resistance and Iran that are being targeted by hypocrites in the west and labeled terrorists
