SANAA, March 30 (YPA) – The head of the national negotiating delegation, Mohammed Abdul-Salam, described actions taken by the Saudi-led coalition to prevent oil, food and medicine ships from entering Yemen’s ports as open piracy and a crime that impedes the peace efforts.

Abdul-Salam said on Twitter that the coalition’s arbitrary measures to prevent the ships licensed and inspected by the United Nations from entering Hodeida port, is a flagrant violation of international and humanitarian law, and the legitimate right of the Yemeni people.
