Saudi coalition seizes Yemeni emergency gasoline ship.
A Yemeni oil company spokesman said a ship carrying emergency gasoline for Yemen was seized by the aggressors as the country witnessed the worst fuel crisis since the Saudi coalition began its aggression.
A spokesman for the Yemeni Oil Company, Issam al-Mutawakil, said the navy of the Saudi aggressor coalition prevented a petrol carrier named Qaisar from entering the port of Al-Hudaidah.
Al-Mutawakil told Al-Masira that the ship was inspected by the United Nations and had received an international permit to enter Yemen.
A spokesman for the Yemeni National Oil Company, referring to the Saudi-American-Emirati coalition’s decision to escalate the Yemeni fuel crisis to deepen the suffering of the Yemeni people, said: “Yemen today is witnessing the worst oil crisis since the aggression and siege began seven years ago .
Al-Mutawakil said: “These days, the queue of citizens’ cars in front of gas stations in different provinces of Yemen reaches more than three kilometers.”
He added: “The initiative of the oil company to resolve the fuel crisis, provided that the tankers are allowed to pass through the port of Al-Hudaidah, is still on the table.”
A spokesman for the Yemeni Oil Company said: “One of the arbitrary measures regarding oil ships bound for Yemen is the forced purchase of their oil from the UAE, and then a French company seals and inspects the tanks of each ship, and then the ships to inspect and issue entry permits.” Are transported to the port of Djibouti; But piracy continues and ships carrying oil are transported to the port of Jizan.
“We are always asked what justification there is for the aggression of the aggressor coalition against these ships in international waters when the oil ships receive a UN permit to enter Yemen,” al-Mutawakil said.
The Yemeni Oil Company announced that the navy of the Saudi aggressor coalition arrived at the port of Al-Hudaidah, despite the fact that it was inspected by the United Nations and allowed to enter Yemen.
