News - Yemen: The Yemen Petroleum Company (YPC) confirmed the US-Saudi aggression's continuation of piracy of fuel ships in the Red Sea and not allowing them to enter the port of Hodeidah. The company's spokesman, Issam Al-Mutwakil, stated that the piracy of fuel ships by the US-Saudi aggression is a violation of the humanitarian truce.

He mentioned that US-Saudi aggression detained the fuel ship "Sea Heart" and took it to the detention area despite obtaining UN permits, in an unjustified violation, whether before or during the announcement of the truce.

Recently, the UN special envoy for Yemen Hans Grundberg announced the ceasefire on Friday, saying the two-month truce would come into effect on Saturday at 07:00 p.m. local time (1600 GMT) on Saturday and could be renewed with consent of the parties, Reuters reported.
 
The deal stipulates halting offensive military operations, including cross-border attacks, and allowing fuel-laden ships to enter Yemen’s lifeline al-Hudaydah port and commercial flights in and out of the airport in the capital Sana’a "to predetermined destinations in the region."

The coalition of aggression continues its 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.
 
Since June 2020, the aggression and its allied government have continued to prevent fuel ships from entering the port of Hodeidah, except for a few ships that entered the port with a large time difference between each ship. Most of the ships left the place where they were being held by the forces of aggression, with their full cargo, after accumulating delay fines, exceeding the price of the cargo.
 
A suffocating fuel crisis in all governorates is experienced under the authority of Sana’a. Most of the important vital sectors, especially the health sector, are threatened with suspension, while work has been disrupted in many productive and service sectors, which caused economic losses of millions of dollars.
 
The fuel stations announced that their stocks of oil had run out. Hundreds of vehicles stood in long queues in front of these stations, hoping that shipments of oil would arrive in the coming days.
 
Meanwhile, representatives of commercial power stations told subscribers in several neighborhoods of the capital, Sana'a, that these stations will have to cut off the power for hours during the day and night, as a result of the lack of diesel running these stations.
