News - Yemen: The Southern Movement praised the Armed Forces operations aiming to protect Yemeni lands and wealth.

The statement commended the efforts of the Armed Forces in thwarting, and preventing the attempt of looting crude Oil from Al-Dabba port in Hadramout Governorate, stating that this is a clear violation of the county's sovereignty. 

It pointed out that looting Yemen's oil comes at a time when the Yemeni people, who have the inherent right to their sovereign wealth, are suffering in all aspects of life.

The statement warned international, regional or local companies which are involved in looting Yemeni wealth, from continuing looting oil.

Yemen's Armed Forces announced in a military statement, Friday, that an oil ship violated a decision issued by the authorities to ban the transfer and export of Yemen's oil.
 
Brigadier Sare'e explained that the warning message came to prevent the continuous looting of oil wealth and not to allocate it to serve the people in paying salaries and services.
 
He pointed out that the message was after addressing the ship operators and informing it of the decision based on the Yemen laws in force and international laws, pointing out that the ship was dealt "with cautionary measures through which the Yemeni' Armed Forces were keen to preserve the safety and security of Yemen's infrastructure and the security of the ship and its crew."
 
The Armed Forces spokesman renewed the warning by saying: "We will not hesitate to do what it takes to stop and prevent any ship trying to plunder the wealth of our Yemeni people," stressing that our armed forces - with God's help - are able to launch more warning operations in defense of our great people and to protect their wealth from tampering and looting.
 
It is noteworthy that the leader of the revolution, Sayyed Abdulmalik al-Houthi, in his speech on the 8th anniversary of the September 21 revolution, warned against continuing to plunder the national wealth from any foreign company that colluded with the coalition of aggression.
 
In turn, President Mahdi Al-Mashat directed the Supreme Economic Committee, on the first of this October, to edit the final official correspondences of all companies and entities related to the looting of Yemeni sovereign wealth, to completely stop looting operations.
