Jordan, the only open destination, is continuously subjected to obstruction by the coalition forces.
An official source at the Ministry of Transport emphasized that the US-Saudi aggression persists in its efforts to enforce an air blockade on Sana'a Airport, further tightening its grip on the Yemeni people for the 10th consecutive year.
He highlighted that the decisions made by the Saudi-American-British aggression to prolong the siege on Sana'a International Airport reveal their lack of commitment to peace and their disregard for ceasefire efforts.
The official affirmed that the Yemeni people, who have steadfastly resisted the US-Saudi aggression for nine years, will not yield to the conspiracies of pro-Zionist forces. He indicated that the aggression coalition aims to intensify the blockade and economic hardship on the Yemeni people in an attempt to weaken their solidarity with the people of Palestine in Gaza.
Furthermore, he reiterated the ministry's rejection of the barriers imposed by the Saudi aggression coalition on limited flights from Sana'a International Airport to Jordan. He emphasized that the Yemeni people insist on their lawful and humanitarian right to travel to all destinations without restriction or precondition.
On 9 August 2016, the Saudi-led coalition imposed restrictions on Yemen’s airspace resulting in the closure of Sana’a Airport to commercial flights, trapping millions of Yemenis in a war zone and preventing the free movement of humanitarian and commercial goods from entering through this route. As a result, thousands of Yemenis with long-term health conditions such as cancer, kidney, liver and blood conditions have died while waiting for treatment unavailable in Yemen.
The closure of the airport has also led to an almost complete halt to commercial cargo such as medicine, medical supplies and equipment coming into the country. Coupled with restrictions on Hodeidah port, this has caused prices of some medicine to double, making it unaffordable for most of the population and further contributing to the decline of Yemen’s health system, already decimated by the aggression.
With the beginning of the truce last year, the aggression tried to evade its commitment to open Sana'a airport and make flights only to one destination, Jordan, and for a very limited number.
Sana'a confirmed more than once that the continued closure of Sana'a airport proves the lack of seriousness of theUS-Saudi aggression to bring peace to Yemen.
