Remnants of Saudi-mercenaries Land Mines Removed in Hodeidah

Brigadier Ali Safra, head of the National Committee for Demining, confirmed the completion of opening and clearing Sana’a Street in Hodeidah from bombs and remnants of Saudi-American forces, pointing out that the committee has put up warning for citizens in dangerous areas.

He explained, Tuesday, that the capabilities of field work in clearing mines is not sufficient for a single street in Hodeidah, stressing that the US-Saudi aggression prevents the entry of modern devices.

He cautioned that there were multiple bombs used by the US-Saudi aggression on the western coast, where the aggression conducted a field experiment, pointing out that the committee had found cluster bombs that it had not encountered before.

Ali Safra explained that the killing of a female citizen in Hodeidah by a bomb remnant of US-Saudi forces is an indication of a looming humanitarian catastrophe due to the spread of bombs in large areas.

He pointed out that the development program canceled all five pillars related to the demining program in Yemen, including the activity of identifying affected areas.

Ali Safra also indicated that the National Committee for Demining addressed humanitarian and international organizations to secure all the requirements of the committee, but it did not receive any response.
