The Saudi-led coalition clearly targets humanitarian work in Yemen

The Red Sea Ports Corporation said that the coalition that is imposed by KSA had forced the FULMAR vessel out of the area before it finished emptying the cargo and was told to directly move 65 miles out of the Ghatas area that is located at the port of Hodeidah province.

The ship was carrying 25 thousand tons of wheat material that was sent by the World Food Programme organization. The ship arrived Thursday morning to the submarine of the port of Hodeidah, eastern Yemen.

The aforementioned organization said in a statement that this is not the first time the coalition forced relief vessels to withdraw from the al-Ghatees area in the port of Hodeidah. The organization also said that this enforced withdrawal at a such time when relief organizations declared that the food situation in Yemen is catastrophic is clearly and with no doubt an act targeting the people of Yemen.

The statement that was made by the organization pointed out that the siege made by coalition is affecting their job since the was first imposed in March of 2015. In addition, Saudi air strikes have targeted the infrastructure of the Foundation such as the cranes and the depositories of the Foundation, which were leased to the World Food Programme.
