News - Yemen: Various Yemeni governorates suffer from a stifling fuel crisis, the Yemen Petroleum Company (YPC) confirmed on Thursday.

“There is a stifling fuel crisis that the citizens suffer from in all Yemeni governorates,” the executive general manager of the company Ammar Al-Adhari told Al-Masirah Channel.

Al-Adhari indicated that the company has the ability to provide fuel to all Yemeni regions through its branches at the lowest costs and at a unified price, provided that fuel ships are allowed to reach the port of Hodeidah permanently without objection.

“Moreover, the United Nations should perform its basic duty,” he added.

As part of its economic war, the US-Saudi aggression worked to drain about 97% of the Yemeni state’s resources, either by controlling them militarily such as oil and gas sources, freezing Yemeni foreign assets and transferring them to mercenaries and financing coalition operations, or imposing siege on the vital port of Hodeidah and the most important port after Aden, which is still in the grip of Sana’a and out of control of the aggression.

The coalition of aggression continues to piracy, detaining fuel ships, and preventing them from entering the port of Hodeidah, despite obtaining permits from UN, which aggravates the humanitarian catastrophe due to the suspension of many vital service sectors, especially hospitals, electricity, water, cargo trucks, as well as waste trucks.
