News - Yemen: The team of the United Nations Mission to Support the Hodeidah Agreement (UNMHA) visited the service facilities targeted by the Israeli aggression last Saturday with several airstrikes.

The team, accompanied by the General Manager of the Oil Company branch in Hodeidah, Adnan Al-Jarmouzi, also examined the nature and extent of the damages to the fuel facilities and tanks in the port, as well as the massive fire in these facilities and the ongoing efforts to extinguish it.

The UN team listened to explanations from local leaders and facility officials about the severity of this crime and its humanitarian repercussions, and the adherence to UN standards and procedures regarding the absence of any military presence in the ports, especially since they are monitored by the UN mission with continuous field visits.

The officials of the Hodeidah port called on the UN mission to fulfill its role and responsibilities according to the decision and tasks of forming this mission and to condemn the brutal Israeli aggression on the port, and to report the extent of the damages and the blatant violation that this vital artery has suffered.

They stressed that the United Nations must fully assume responsibility for not fulfilling its expected role in these catastrophic repercussions and the damages affecting the interests of the Yemeni people, as these vital facilities provide services to millions of Yemenis.

This visit by the UN Mission to Support the Hodeidah Agreement comes without any indication that the United Nations is concerned about the Zionist aggression on the

On Saturday, Israeli warplanes targeted civilian buildings, oil facilities, and a power station in the Yemeni province of Hodeidah, killing eight citizens and injuring dozens others.

The Israeli aggression has faced widespread condemnation both locally and across the Arab world.

Brushing off official accounts that the airstrikes had targeted civilian structures, Israeli military spokesman Daniel Hagari alleged that the regime’s aircraft had struck “military targets” in Hodeidah.

He also said the strikes had come in response to the attacks that the Yemeni Armed Forces had been carrying out against the occupied Palestinian territories over the past months.

The Yemeni Armed Forces have been targeting the territories as well as Israeli ships and vessels affiliated with the occupying regime since October 7, when Tel Aviv began a genocidal war against the Gaza Strip. They have vowed to keep up their operations as long as the regime sustains the war and a simultaneous siege that it has been enforcing against the Palestinian territory.

Yemeni Armed Forces spokesman Yahya Sare'e announced after the airstrikes that the response to Israeli aggression would include "vital targets of the Israeli enemy," reiterating their previous statement that Yafa (Jaffa) is considered an unsafe area.
