The National Human Rights Commission has taken initiatives to bring Nepali migrant workers home from war-torn Yemen.
Nepalis working in Sana, the capital city of Yemen, and another city Aden had reported that their lives were at risk due to ongoing civil war there.
As many as 14 Nepalis in Sana and 11 in Aden have been living at risk, said NHRC member Sudip Pathak quoting Manoj Bhattarai of Syangja district, who is currently in Yemen.
