YPC: Aggression delays emergency gasoline ship release

The Yemeni Petroleum Company (YPC) on Tuesday confirmed that the US-Saudi-Emirati aggression coalition continues to detain the emergency gasoline ship and delaying its release.

YPC’s official spokesman Issam Al-Mutawakel said in a statement to the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), that the aggression coalition, by delaying releasing the gasoline ship, “Caesar”, is ignoring all calls to neutralize the humanitarian file and alleviate the suffering of the Yemeni people who are experiencing the largest humanitarian crisis in full view of the United Nations and the world.

It is noteworthy that the YPC had previously received information that the aggression coalition had agreed to release two ships, one of which was the “Caesar.” Until this moment, the ship has not moved from the detention area to the port of Hodeida, despite obtaining prior permits from the UN Verification and Inspection Committee.
