News - Yemen: National Delegation Member Abdulmalik Al-Ejri, affirmed refusal to deal with peace as joke and he said " Our position is always with any step leading to real peace."

Al-Ejri considered that the real test for peace is the implementation of UN sponsored humanitarian truce, whether by completing the procedures for lifting restrictions on the airport and the port, or related to basic rights, especially salaries and electricity.

The US-Saudi aggression is still preventing flights to Sana'a Int. Airport and fuel ships to Hodeidah's port, in violation of the terms of the military humanitarian truce.

Yemeni Military Media revealed that the US-Saudi aggression committed 1,647 violations of the UN-brokered two-month truce within a week of its entry into effect.

According to the Military Media, the violations included offensive operations, air raids, overflights by coalition warplanes, Apache and spy aircraft, missile and artillery targets, and extensive combing with various bullets.

The Deputy Foreign Minister Hussein Al-Azi, confirmed on Friday that the violations of the truce by the Saudi coalition are increasing, the latest being a large-scale offensive on the positions of Yemeni forces in the energy-rich province of Marib.

“No flights [into and out of Sana’a International Airport] are allowed yet. Despite having undergone inspection and received UN clearance, ships are detained and taken away to Jizan port [in southern Saudi Arabia],” he asserted, pointing to the blatant breaches.

Last week, the UN special envoy for Yemen, Hans Grundberg, announced the nationwide ceasefire, for the first time since 2016, saying the two-month truce would be eligible for renewal with the consent of parties.

The truce, meant to halt all military operations in the country and bring the foreign military invasion to an end, came into effect at 07:00 p.m. local time (1600 GMT) on April 2.

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said the truce "must be a first step to ending Yemen’s devastating war," urging the warring parties to build on the opportunity to "resume an inclusive and comprehensive Yemeni political process."

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."
