Mahrah sit-in Committee: Saudi Arabia has not abided the agreement with protesters

MAHRAH, April 14 (YPA) – Deputy Chairman of the Popular Sit-in Committee of Mahrah, Sheikh Aboud Haboud Qumisat, has stated Saudi Arabia has not stopped the war on Yemen and has not abided by the previous agreement reached with the Mahrah protesters.

Sheikh Aboud Haboud Qumisat mocked Saudi Arabia’s declaration of a ceasefire, stating: “What is the use of a ceasefire, where Saudi and UAE forces are controlling Yemen’s ports and airports, particularly the southern provinces, and the province of Mahrah in particular?”

He confirmed that Saudi Arabia controls all the state’s infrastructure, as well as al-Ghaydha airport, Nishtun, Shihan and Surifat ports .

Qumisat said the ceasefire should coincide with ending the foreign presence in Yemen and opening a dialogue between various political parties in Yemen, in order to reach an agreement that would end the war in the country.
