Yemeni official: The coalition of aggressors continues to hijack oil ships

A Yemeni oil company official said that the Saudi aggressor coalition hijacked two ships carrying Yemeni fuel on Wednesday night and prevented them from entering the port of Hodeidah.

According to Alalam TV channel, Essam al-Mutawakkil said that the coalition of aggressors continues to pirate ships carrying oil products and seized the fuel carrier kosmograph and the diesel ship Daiton, despite the humanitarian nature and obtaining permission to enter from the UN.

According to him, the Saudi coalition and the UN are responsible for the continued piracy of vessels carrying oil and products, their hijacking and the imposition of financial fines, and the people of Yemen are suffering the pain and suffering caused by this action.

Earlier, Mahdi al-Mashat, head of Yemen’s Supreme Political Council, warned the Saudi coalition against seizing ships carrying fuel, a clear violation of the ceasefire.

In March 2015. Saudi Arabia launched a military invasion of Yemen and blockaded it from land, sea and air to plunder its oil resources. The Yemeni people suffer from a shortage of oil products in different provinces, while thousands of tons of Yemeni crude oil are stolen by the coalition of aggressors.

The Minister of Human Rights of Yemen’s National Salvation Government criticized the UN Special Envoy and said, “Hans Grundberg and the ambassadors of countries that have aggressively invaded Yemen are ignoring reality.

According to Yemen’s Al-Masirah TV channel, Ali Al-Dailami, who spoke on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, said, “The UN Special Envoy and the aggressor countries behave in a way that makes them forget what is going on in Yemen with international complicity in crimes and human rights violations.”

Al-Dailami asked several questions and added: “Where are these basic rights emphasized in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights? Where are the investigations into the grave crimes recognized by the UN?” “Human rights are for everyone, but the United Nations takes a double approach and engages in racism against people, which we Yemenis cannot accept,” he recalled.

On the other hand, Safir al-Din Seyyed, the highest representative of the Organization for Human Rights in Yemen, also said on this occasion, “What has outraged the human conscience is the disregard and degrading approach to human rights, which has led to brutal actions.”

“The long conflict in Yemen must end, the truce must be renewed and its scope must be expanded, because we are still receiving reports of civilian injuries, especially children, from mines and cases of bombing in Yemen. We advocate that (aggressors) be held accountable for violations against civilians and attacks on civilian infrastructure in Yemen,” Seyyed added.

The remarks came as the Sanaa-based Women and Children’s Rights Organization announced Sunday that more than 13,473 Yemeni children and women had been killed and wounded in the eight years of aggression by the Saudi coalition in Yemen.

Saudi Arabia, backed by the United States, the United Arab Emirates and several other countries, has carried out military aggression against Yemen since March 2015 and is blockading the country from land, sea and air.
