Coalition seizes new fuel ship

SANAA, Aug. 02 (YPA) – Yemen’s Petroleum Company in Sanaa announced on Tuesday that the coalition detained a new fuel ship and prevented it from reaching Hodeida port.

The company’s spokesman, Essam Mutawakil, affirmed on Twitter that the gasoline ship “Hari Prakash” was seized after being permitted by the UN.

He considered these abusive actions as a new violation of the UN truce.

Al-Mutawakil pointed out that the coalition’s continued piracy and detention of oil derivatives ships violated the armistice, pointing out that only 29 fuel ships out of the 36 ships agreed to enter the port during the truce.
