MAHRAH, Nov.07 (YPA) – The British and Saudi occupation forces in Mahrah Governorate continue to violate the rights of Yemeni fishermen and prevent them from fishing activities on the coasts of the governorate.

The Minister of Fisheries, Mohammed Al-Zubayri, explained that the British forces occupying the coasts of Mahrah Governorate expelled fishermen on the Qishn coast and transferred them to the Sayhut district.

Al-Zubairi added that the forces of the British-Saudi aggression occupying the coasts of Mahrah aggravate the suffering of the fishermen and prevent them from fishing and working in the occupied coasts of Mahrah Governorate, in clear violation of Yemeni sovereignty.

He denounced these practices and the barbaric behavior of the Saudi-British aggression against this governorate, its people and all Yemenis, calling on the free people in Mahrah governorate to stand united against the occupiers and liberate the governorate from the impurity of the invaders.
