News - Yemen: President Mahdi Al-Mashat, head of Supreme Political Council pointed out that the US-Saudi occupiers believe that defending the Yemeni People's wealth against looting is wrong because it goes against its interests. He stressed that American insolence increases the Yemeni people insistence on continuing the path of liberation and independence.

"We reaffirm our firm position to protect the people's capabilities and prevent plundering of their Oil and Gas. The decision to protect wealth does not mean any threat to international navigation, as US-Saudi aggression claims," he said.

He renewed the Yemeni people condemnation of the aggressive efforts to plunder Yemen's wealth and deprive its people of their natural entitlements, condemning efforts of US-Saudi aggression to obstruct payment of salaries, disrupt peace efforts.

"Yemeni people will not stand idly While their wealth plundered and they are suffering the most severe siege, so we advise US-Saudi aggression to resort to peace," stressing "the need to expedite payment of salaries of Yemeni people."

For its part, General Al-Atifi pointed out that the Armed Forces demonstrated, through military parades, their high readiness, and the advanced level they reached in military industrialization.

He pointed out that the international community, the Security Council and the UN with silence contributed to threaten Yemen's sovereign wealth.

He pointed out that the warning strikes against looters gained a national and popular approval among the people in all governorates, especially southern governorates.

The commander of Central Military Region, Abdulkhaleq Al-Houthi, indicated that all the conspiracies of the US-Saudi aggression had failed in the face of the steadfastness of the Yemeni people and the armed forces. He pointed out that one of the priorities of the tasks of the Army is to defend the interests of the people, protect Yemen's sovereignty and achieve a comprehensive victory for the Republic of Yemen.

Recently, Yemen's Armed Forces announced in a military statement 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.
