The gas tanker arrived in the Yemeni port of Al-Hudaidah after being detained for 82 days.
Tehran – Sach News – The Yemeni Ansarullah movement announced the arrival of a gas tanker that had been detained for 82 days by coalition forces in the port of Al-Hudaidah.
Ali Masar, the official spokesman for the Ansarullah-affiliated gas company, said today (Monday) that the ship (Claudia) with a capacity of 8,473 tons of imported gas had been seized by Saudi-led coalition forces for 82 days, according to the official Saba news agency. The Saudis entered the port of Al-Hudaidah.
Coalition forces are causing fuel shortages in Ansar al-Hashimi areas by seizing fuel-carrying ships and preventing them from entering the port of Al-Hudaidah.
A few days ago, the Saudi coalition prevented the tanker carrying 27,000 tons of fuel from entering the port of Al-Hudaidah.
Reacting to the move, the executive director of the Yemeni Oil Company, Ammar al-Azra’i, said the ship had been seized despite an inspection and an entry permit from the United Nations.
He called the seizure of Yemeni ships a piracy and called the continuation of the status quo a clear violation of international and humanitarian law.
Earlier, the Yemeni Oil Company announced that three ships carrying fuel in the country were still in the custody of the Saudi-American coalition forces.
