HC Deb 15 December 1969 vol 793 cc235-6W
Mr. Rose

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs whether he will seek to raise at the Human Rights Commission of the United Nations the danger to peace in a part of the Middle East arising from conflicts between Egyptian and Saudi Arabian elements in the Yemen and the bombing and gassing of civilians by Egypt in that area.

Mr. Luard

No. All United Arab Republic forces were withdrawn from the Yemen in the latter half of 1967. So far as I am aware, there are no Saudi forces in the Yemen.
