Saudi military expert calls for ending war on Yemen

SANAA, March 02 (YPA) – A Saudi expert in military and strategic affairs has warned against the continuation of the war on Yemen.

Retired Major General in the Saudi army, Ahmed Al-Fifi, called in a tweet on Twitter, on the Saudi-led coalition countries to end the war on Yemen in light of the current situation in the Russian and Ukrainian affairs.

Al-Fifi, who was the assistant commander of the Saudi forces in Jizan, explained that “if the war on Yemen is not ended, it will extend for years to come.”

The coalition has been launching a war on Yemen since March 26, 2015, during which thousands of civilians were killed, most of them women and children, and caused the worst humanitarian disaster in the world due to the continued air, sea, and land blockade, preventing the entry of food and medicine to the port of Hodeida, and the continued closure of Sanaa International Airport.
