HODEIDA, May 10 (YPA) – إYemeni Red Sea Ports Foundation Said that the Saudi-led coalition forces hold many food vessels and forcing them to change their route and go to other ports, in order to achieve its deadly goal to starve the Yemeni people to death.

In a press conference was hold in the Port on Hodeida, the Vice president of the Foundation, Yahya Sharaf Eddin denied allegations of Saudi-led coalition regarding the detention of oils ships in the port of Hodeida, Stressing these allegations are unfounded and came in the context of the disinformation exercised by Saudi-led coalition media and its allies.

He confirmed the Foundation’s keenness not to delay the entry of any ships, whether commercial or humanitarian to the docks of the port and there are no complaints from the shipping companies in this aspect.

The Saudi-led coalition forces took advantage of the difficult conditions of Yemeni ports especially the port of Hodeida as a result of the bombing of Ras Issa oil port by the coalition mid-2017, which was receiving large oil tankers, which made the ships congested because of the limited oil docks and the capacity of the port of Hodeida, he said.
