Coalition continues to detain 6 oil derivative ships

SANAA, Jan. 25 (YPA) –  The Saudi-led aggression coalition has continued to detain 6 oil derivative ships with nearly 150,000 tons of gasoline and diesel on board, an official source in Hodeidah port told Yemen Press Agency.

The source added that the coalition is detaining two ships carry more than 17,000 tons of food and for the eighth day, the aggression also is holding a ship after unloading its cargo in the port of Hodeidah.

These criminal and arbitrary measures for the aggression forces come despite the UN envoy’s talk to Yemen in his briefing to the Security Council last week that fuel ships are entering the port of Hodeidah and that the crisis has been avoided but the aggression coalition is still holding ships in order to increase the suffering the Yemeni people and target the national economy.
