YPC reveals reasons for supply suffocation in Sanaa

SANAA, Sept. 04 (YPA) – Yemen’s Petroleum Company(YPC) in Sanaa revealed the reasons for the supply suffocation and declaring a state of emergency in Sanaa and the others provine under the authority of the Supreme Political Council.

“Since the beginning of the last extension of the truce, no fuel vessel has entered, although there are 9 vessels detained off the coast of Jizan, after being searched and obtained entry permits from the United Nations,” YPC’s spokesman, Essam Al-Mutawakel, confirmed in a press statement on Sunday.

“The Saudi-led coalition has not allow any fuel vessel from the existing truce allocations to enter the port of Hodeida,” Al-Mutawakel added. What previously arrived from the fuel ships to the port of Hodeida was among the entitlements of the first extension of the truce.

He pointed out that the supply suffocation in Sanaa and the rest of the province today is revealing the falsehood of the statements of the UN envoy and his allegation of the smooth flow of fuel to the port of Hodeida.

The company’s spokesman demanded that the port of Hodeida be fully opened, and then the company would bear the responsibility for any supply crisis, stressing that the YPC’s need to enter all the detained ships to lift the state of supply emergency.
