News - Yemen: The Yemen Gas Company confirmed that the US-Saudi aggression had detained the gas vessel "LADY SARAH" and prevented it from entering the port of Hodeidah, in a new violation of truce.

The company's official spokesman, Ali Maasar, explained that the US-Saudi aggression seized the gas ship loaded with 9,332 metric tons of imported gas, despite obtaining an entry permit from the UN.

He pointed out that these arbitrary practices confirm the continuation of US-Saudi aggression in piracy on gas ships and repudiation of the implementation of truce.

Saudi Arabia, backed by the US and its other regional allies, launched a devastating war on Yemen in March 2015. The seven years and half of war has killed hundreds of thousands of people and destroyed much of the country’s infrastructure. Yemeni people are facing malnutrition, hunger, and famine, which have increased risks of disease and starvation.

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.
