The Houthi terrorist militia continues to detain a number of ships loaded with oil derivatives in the port of Ras Issa, and prevent them from leaving by force, despite its presence in a military operations area, which constitutes a direct threat to the lives of dozens of sailors of different nationalities.

The Minister of Information, Culture and Tourism, Muammar Al -Iryani, strongly condemned this escalation, considering him a deliberate recklessness of the lives of civilians, and a frequent use of the port for military purposes, which endangers maritime navigation.

Al -Iryani indicated that some sailors directed urgent appeals to their governments to save them from this tragic situation, amid reports of injuries as a result of the shelling that targeted the port recently.

He emphasized that the militia practices piracy and looted fuel shipments illegally, in a flagrant violation of international laws, stressing that these practices reveal the terrorist nature of the Houthis and their use of civilians as a pressure card to achieve political gains.
